Since I created two separate blogs, I was looking for a way I could link them to each other. So, I looked for a button (or chiclets) I could click that would take me to the second blog and the other way around.
I googled how to do this and I came across easy instructions. Here they are if you are looking to do the same:
1. Build the graphic. You can always create your own button using Photoshop or other image editing software. However, if you are fully fluent in that software, I probably don't need to teach you how to make chiclets. I would recommend you look for a clip art or a photo you already have.
2. Save this graphic that the button maker produces to your computer. Don't forget where you put it!
3. Upload your picture to the web. If you don't own your own web space, you can always take advantage of Flickr or Photobucket to host your pics online.
4. Create some HTML code. Super Easy I promise!
I couldn't copy and paste the code because you wouldn't be able to see it as it comes out as coded in my blog but this website gives you the whole set of instructions.
There are two URL addrss that need to be changed in order to fit your needs. The first address is the site your linking to. The second one is the address where your image is located on the web. (To find this address, click on the image in your published post. Next right click, scroll down and click on properties. Then you can copy the URL address next to location.) I found deleting the words, title="Mouseover Words" works better. Make sure to only delete those letters. Do not delete the > symbol. Also leave the words "Alternative Name" the way they are. I found when I changed those words it didn't work.
5. That's it! you are done! Copy and Paste your new chiclet code into whatever webpage you would like it to appear in. Tell your friends! You now have a logo instead of a link!
That's how I feel...
How awesome and easy is that? If I can do it, you can too! Happy blogging.
