I decided to update the look of my blog today. I was thinking about hiring someone to do it for me, but I’m too impatient, so I started fooling around on my own, and surprisingly, it was much easier to do than I thought.
#1. Search and download fonts that you like from da font.
#2. Play around with it in powerpoint until you like how it looks. If you aim to make it about as wide as a powerpoint slide, it will be close to the correct width for your blog.
#3. Save it as a jpeg.
#4. Open it in a photo editing program to crop it (vertically) and resize it to 920px wide (or whatever size your current header is… I think most blogs templates are 1000px wide.)
#5. Install it on your blog! That was it! So easy!
