hello!
i made a tutorial for you~ :)
got to http://vitalego.webs.com/tutorials.html >> blogger >> how to get a favicon
OR
http://vitalego.webs.com/tuts/blogger/favicon.htm

let me know if you have any questions~

i explained everything in my faq. http://www.villianz.blogspot.com/2011/03/frequently-asked-questions.html (it's the first question under the "tumblr theme faq" headline."

sure! i'll be happy to~
they will be up sometime during the weekend~

i see what you mean. but without the theme code, i cannot help you. :(
the only other solution is to make a tags page and list the tags instead of having the search box.

it's ok! i'm glad to be of service~
but, i'm not quite sure what you mean?

to remove the caption on the permalink page:
1. press CTRL + F on your keyboard and search for: {block:Caption}<div class="title">comments:</div>{Caption}{/block:Caption}
2. then remove the while code (aka the one shown above)

to add the captions on the front of your blog:
1: copy the code below and past is after "{/block:Answer}" but before the "</div>" in other words, in between the two.

{block:Caption}{Caption}{/block:Caption}

you need to re-add the statcounter code.
it also depends, if the theme has a description section to it or not, if that's where the statcounter code is.

anything after: td#sidebar {

EXAMPLE:
before: td#sidebar {font-family: arial; font-size: 11px; line-height: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; color: #777777; background-color: transparent; text-align: justify; }
after: td#sidebar {font-family: tahoma; font-size: 12px; line-height: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; color: #777777; background-color: transparent; text-align: justify; }

you're welcome!
to change it to a different picture,again press CTRL + F (or command + F for mac users) to search and search for: <img src="{PortraitURL-128}" class="icon"
replace * {PortraitURL-128} * with the image URL of your choice.

EXAMPLE:
before: <img src="{PortraitURL-128}" class="icon"
after: <img src="http://www.formspring.me/images/photo_default_130.jpg"; class="icon"

press CTRL + F and search for ".icon" and change the width and height to whatever you desire. :)

you can use them anywhere, really. in your name, in your blog/website title, etc.
basically, anywhere where you can use text. :)

copy and paste this code in the description box wherever you want the codes to go:
<a href=" LINK URL HERE ">LINK NAME HERE</a>

sorry i didn't answer before! my laptop was acting up. :<

if it's a theme you customized, then you'll need to "revert to classic template".
to do this, go to the template tab and scroll down until you see the above option and click it.

ohhh, now i see that you mean. haha.
mine shows up as #1, too. i wouldn't worry too much. for me, youtube always switched back and forth to both of the layouts that you showed me, and i don't even change my settings! i think it's just youtube trying out new layouts without us committing to be beta testers. :/

yeah, on some website, what you see on your profile page may not be what others see. this is either because the changes haven't taken effect for you, or because the website gives you options (ie. change profile, background, etc.) but my thinking is that if it looks for someone else, then it must look good for the whole world, so it's ok. :)

can you please tell me what layout are you trying to use? i can help, then. ^^

i seem to have this problem sometimes too, and i don't know why that is. and it only seems to happen every now and then. :/ i'm guessing it has to do with the panda pixel + code. /sigh

to fix this, you can make the permalink visible all the time. to do this, press CTRL + F on your keyboard and search for "#link {". delete the following: display: none;

if you don't like the the permalink as a date/time format, you can change it to a special character with you can find here~: http://www.formspring.me/uneasystare/q/288447753019735115

hello!
you'll have to add a couple of codes. with CTRL + F, search for "#entry". then add the opacity code. then add another entry code with the difference in opacity. both codes are given below~
you may have to switch around the opacity codes depending if you want it to start opaque to faded or faded to opaque. i have given you the code to the first choice. :-)

#entry {
width: 400px;
filter: alpha(opacity=100);
moz-opacity:1.0;
opacity:1.0 ;
}
#entry:hover .permalink {
filter: alpha(opacity=60);
moz-opacity:.60;
opacity:.60 ;
}

CTRL + F to search and search for "#entry".
add "margin-bottom: -xx" to the entry code.
eplace the "xx"'s withe the amount of space you want to decrease. or if you want to increase space, remove the "-". :)

for blogger, the post code should look something like this:

<Blogger>
<div class="title"><a href="<$BlogItemPermalinkURL$>">❝</a> <BlogItemTitle><$BlogItemTitle$></BlogItemTitle></div>
<div class="date">( posted on <BlogDateHeader><$BlogDateHeaderDate$></BlogDateHeader> @ <$BlogItemDateTime$> )</div>
<$BlogItemBody$></div><br>
</Blogger>

and for tumblr, the codes are much more complex because they have different post type (ie. video, photo, link, etc). but it should start with something like this:

{block:Posts}{block:IfInfiniteScrolling}<div class = "autopagerize_page_element" >{/block:IfInfiniteScrolling}
{block:Text}<div id="entry">
<span class="permalink"><a href="{Permalink}">{ShortMonth} {MonthNumberWithZero}, {Year} @ {12Hour}:{Minutes}{AmPm}</a></span><div class="content">{block:Title}<div class="title">{Title}</div>{/block:Title}{Body}</div></div>{/block:Text}

if you would like me to go more in depth, please let me know~
