Yeah I know that, but how do you customize it, like put your own images in the background.

Use the "simpleGray" template. Once you've chosen that one, you can customize your blog in any number of ways.

Writerlover - You get points by reviewing pieces. At the top of the page, there is a section labeled "Writing." "Read and Review" is the section you want to look around in. The longer the review/critique you give someone's piece, the more points you get. To review, just click the button that says "Post reply."

Is there a certain criteria for random works posted at the top right corner of the page?

Livinginfantasy- They have to be less than a month old with at least two gold stars.

I have a few questions.
Fist of all how do you get that custom title I think it's called? The writing under your name.
And how do you get stars? One randomly appeared under my name one day and I wondered how it got there.
thanks. :]

You can pick a custom title once you're a novelist, which is 250 posts.

You get stars for reviews. I can't remember exactly how many reviews equal a star, but you can find it somewhere on the site.

Is there a way to subscribe to certain blogs you like, or a way to see if they've been updated recently?
Thanks!

Yes! What you do is go to the "Friends" link, which should be off to the side of your blog, and then you can add friends to the list and see their blogs. Also, if you set your blogs to friends only, like mine is set, only the people you add will be able to see those particular entries (though your entry won't show up in the "Blog News" page).
