excuse me, just touching up...

I don't know if you've noticed or not but I have been playing around a little with my blog lay out. It's not a lot but I'm much more happier with it.  Can't figure out what I've done??

I've played around with the html and added another column to the left to fit in the things I've been wanting to add for so long now.  I know, html is fiddly stuff but I found some really easy instructions online and thought I should perhaps share them with you.  I don't often get the time to post all the things I want to post but I thought I should at least try and be a bit more pro-active on the practical front.

After quite a bit of surfing of the net I stumbled onto a website called Blogger Busters.  There I found step by step instructions of how to fiddle with the html in 'Minima' blogger template and create 3 columns.  The instructions are very easy to understand and simple to use but you need to make sure you follow them exactly as described or else accidently leaving something out will result in columns running into each other or other disasters.  I was so happy when I finally tweaked the html in the right places and was extremely grateful that there are helpful people out there willing to lend a hand.  Thanks heaps Amanda for taking the time to post those great instructions.

Any hoo, just thought I'd let you know what I did incase any one else out there was looking for a change or wanting to 'fluff up the cushions' so to speak.

This is great. I tried in vain ages ago to get that elusive third column on my own blog. Will look at that link once I have real time to do so.
