OT: Tell me about Blog Designs...

My blog is BOR-ING! But I am CHEAP and don't want to pay a small fortune to have a cool lookin' blog.

Anyone have any ideas for me?
Any websites you could direct me to - to find a way to spice up my blog?

I also see those counters and fancy stuff like that to help you see who is checkin' out your blog... where do ya find such cool stuff like that?

Thanks for any tips you can give me. I am just soooooo jealous about all of your cool blogs that I want mine to ROCK too!!

I don't know how to design blogs, but I am trying to learn.

I had my blog done by Nikki with blogs for a cause

She is great and half her funds go toward a different cause each time. She was pretty cheap think it was 20 or 30 dollars.

I have seen a couple of really cute blogs that have used this website The Cutest Blog on the Block

I think they even have tips on how to do it yourself...

I had Nikki do mine and I love that it goes to a good cause.

THANKS HANNAH!
I emailed Nikki and she ALREADY emailed me back!!
I'll post when it is all done. I'm sooooo excited - especially that the money goes to such great causes.

Nikki also did mine, but I didn't have her put a guess ticker on my page, does anyone know how to do that. I am not blog savvy at all!

Oh, it is really easy. I just went to a blog that had one and clicked on it and it walked me through the whole thing. I have one on my blog that you can see. Mine is a counter and then I have one that tells where people are that was done the same way.
