Howto Change blog background color and others

Labels: colors, fonts

With New Blogger, it is very easy to change colors of various thing, and that include the blog background color. All you need to do is to sign into blogger.com (Dashboard) where you will see a list of all the blogs you have in your Blogger account. Click on LAYOUT for the relevant blog,

then click on the "Fonts and colors" sub tab. You will then see a page to change the colors of various things as seen in the screenshot below:

The first choice is to "Change Page Background Color" and that has already been selected for you. You can select the color you want by one of the boxes that contain "Colors from your blot", "Colors that match your blog" or "More colors". If non of the colors given there is what you want, you can get a wide range of color by typing in the hexadecimal color code (highlighted by a red ellipse) of the color you want. For this purpose, I normally uses ColorPic or Color Blender, the use of which have been described in these posts:

Blending the colors of your ads to the colors of your website and

Blending the color of your search box to the colors of your website.

After you have made a selection, click "Save changes".

You can see from the scroll box in the left section that there are other things whose color and font you can change.
