your signature

Here's how to get your signature like this,
at the end of each your posts.
Go to My Live Signature.
--If you don't want to register, scroll down and click Proceed.
--Or you can create an account so you can save multiple signatures. Click Register, and create your account.  Click Login, then click the New Sig tab.

The quickest way to get your signature is under "Creating a new signature", click Using the creation signature wizard.
You'll be taken through the steps to pick font, size, slant, etc. 
There are 120 fonts!  =)

If you want to only show your name without a box around the name, check Transparent. Transparent works best on very light backgrounds.  And a larger size or thicker font will of course show up better.

When you are finished, click on Use Sigs.  Then Generate HTML code, then Generate a code for your 'handwritten' signature.  Scroll down and click Generate Code.  Scroll down and highlight/copy the code.

On your blog, go to Customize, click on the Settings tab, click on Format, scroll to the bottom, and paste your code in the box that says Post Template.  Save Settings.

Each time you create a new post, the signature will already be there.  At the top right of the new post box, click on Edit HTML tab, click your cursor at the beginning of your signature code that is there and hit the Return/Enter key a few times.  Go back to the Compose tab and you will have space within which to begin typing. Spacing down before beginning your post will keep your signature from appearing in the MIDDLE of your text, which has happened to me!  =)
If this happens, edit your post, position your cursor after the last character in your post and hit Enter.
This should fix it.

  1. Thanks for sharing this tutorial. I often wondered how to get a signiture at the bottom of my posts.

    I'm going to bookmark your blog and someday when I have a few spare moments I'll try my hand at creating a signiture.

  2. Joyful Chaos,
    Hi!
    I just visited your blog, and OH MY! Such yummy looking recipes! I have a recipe blog, but mine is nothing compared to yours! I've got to make that taco ring and the garlic swirly things. Oh, and that Italian salad. And the cream cheese bars. And... (you get the picture!)

    They look soooo delicious!
    I bookmarked your blog. =)

    Good luck w/ the siggy. Let me know if you get it on there!

    Blessings,
    Marty
