Young Writers Society

Alright, so I'm trying to get my blog going, but I'm frustrated with the pre-made blog templates available. I've seen other YWS bloggers with their own backgrounds, like they've messed with the templates, but I can't figure out how to do that because it always tells me 'this template is not customizable' yada yada yada...

I asked this question in some other random forum and I got a good answer from Juniper:

There's only a few templates you can customize; I think the main ones are Yellow Grey and simple grey. You can simply change the background image and the colors using hexadecimal codes. =D

Unfortunately, though, I don't know what 'hexadecimal codes' are or how the heck I would get some hexadecimal codes or use them...

Can anyone help me and explain an easy way to change the template or help me out with it if it isn't as easy as I hope? Thanks in advance!!

I can help you out! ^_^

June's write when saying the hexadecimal codes will help you out. You'll find them as you scroll down the page in Blog Control. Next to some of the blanks, it says "See Hexadecimal Codes," I believe, and it'll link you to the codes. This is all beneath the main part of Blog Control, and extended part that is shown when you choose the two customizable blog designs.

Hope that helps!
