Frustration!!!

alright, i've just wasted a good 30 minutes trying to download a new background for my blog and came up UNSUCCESSFUL! I could have vaccuumed, done some dishes or cleaned my floor, but NO, i wasted time doing this and have nothing to show for it! Aargh! If anyone has any tips on downloading and installing backgrounds, send me advice!

Brandon & Jillyn Larsen said...: go to pyzam.com
it has a ton of backgrounds. you just copy the one you want and paste it into your html and woola! it unfotunately erases your friends list.; June 12, 2008 at 8:29 PM
Ashleigh and Zebb said...: I have a very nice friend that did it for me! she did all the work and i reap all the benefits but i thank her greatly! cuz i was in the same boat as you!; June 12, 2008 at 9:20 PM
Ashleigh and Zebb said...: oh ya and make sure to write down all your addresses like jillyn said, cuz it does erase them, that is the unfortunate thing; June 12, 2008 at 9:22 PM
Mia said...: Pyzam.com is good - but you lose all of your page elements that you have added on the right side of your blog (friends, etc) and it takes FOREVER to add them all back on. Thecutestblogontheblock.com doesn't have as many to pick from, but its way easier. Just pick the background you like, copy the code, paste it in a html/java script (go to layout, then add a page element, then html/javascript) Its super easy. Call me if you want help!!! Good luck!; June 13, 2008 at 8:14 AM
Mia said...: oh I forgot to tell you that Thecutestblogontheblock.com doesnt erase any of your page elements!!!!!!; June 13, 2008 at 8:15 AM

Aimee's Family Journal said...: Of course, with my sister being the brain behind the site... I would reccommend www.thecutestblogontheblock.com ! It is way simple. The instructions are attached to each background, and it doesn't erase any of your other page elements like other sites do! Good luck!; June 16, 2008 at 8:28 PM

JakenDebbie said...: I have been there. It's horrible. One really good site that is not as well known is Leelou...there's a link on my blog. Very cute backgrounds, very easy to add, and they don't erase all of you sidebar stuff. Check it out!; June 19, 2008 at 7:58 AM
