You know how it is.. it's late at night... the brain is only sort of clear...

Look! It's the Leaning Tower of Pisa... pretend that this image is the background image...

And, you get some wild idea to switch things around in the 'blogger' layout.  After all, you've seen other blogs with their own photos placed as a background and you think to yourself... "One thing you do have is a lot of photos"... and you'd like to have your own photo as the background image.

So, while you know that doing anything after midnight on a work night is NOT usually a good idea,  you still can't resist the urge to play around with the settings... pretty soon you are hitting the 'apply to blog' button... Ok, maybe you hit this 'apply to blog' button a few times?  Several times?   Anyway,  the next thing you know... you can't read the font color on the background color, the background color is some bright lime green, you totally lost the list of blog followers, and you notice that the previous blog listings are now found at the BOTTOM of the blog and not on the right hand side where they have always been... and nothing you do is changing anything... actually with each 'apply to blog' click things get worse.

You sigh... you click on a few more buttons...a few things change again, different font styles appear out of nowhere,  but, hey one good thing... you notice that you can now write blog entries and have paragraphs... "OH BOY progress!"  Soon.. you'll be able to write longer blog entries that people will be able to read.  Because the way it was set up 'for some reason' it just wasn't easy to read if everything was one LONG paragraph...

So, we are now left with these problems/changes:  *Some good, some not so good...

1.  I still can't download any of my own photos for the background.  I keep getting error messages that my file is too large.  I'm tried to trying to size my photos- I spent 30 minutes on this endeavor.

2.  I don't know why the blog entries and other 'stuff' that used to be on the right hand side is now listed at the bottom.  (I'll try to figure it out- but right now I need to try to get some sleep.)

3.  The color seems more serene OR at least it is a change.

4.  Yeah!  Yeah!  I can now write in paragraphs.

Now, let's see if a photo will still download.
