I've decided once again that, for various reasons, I'd like to increase my efforts at moblogging. I've spent the past week messing around with several services and concluded that TextAmerica is going to suit my needs the best.
I've always liked to customize how my blog looks, but I know that most moblogging services try to minimize users' ability to make drastic changes to their templates, mostly to help ensure that things work properly for as many browsers/phones/PDAs etc. as possible. Unfortunately, I find TextAmerica's documentation woefully lacking and can't seem to get enough information about tweaking their templates.
What I HAVE been able to do:
--Replace the text-based page titles and headers with JPG images, for all of the page types
--Replace the profile portrait with a "summary" or "site motto"
--Insert several permanent images and comments into the narrow, right-hand column
--Delete unwanted items, like news services links
--Edit the wording for things like "number of posts," "add a comment," etc.
...and a few more tidbits
What I HAVEN'T been able to do and need help with:
--Make the TITLE for each entry appear in BOLD or an ALTERNATE FONT
Does anybody have advice on where I might find if this is even possible or how to achieve this?
Oh, and did I mention that this has been my first real attempt at HTML revising/writing? ;)
Thanks!!
