BOB and the New Blogger Interface

LHQ is doing some posts on the NEW BLOGGER INTERFACE -

And said -

First we need to CREATE A NEW POST -
We’ll call it “TESTING 1-2-3” -
Clever title - don’t you think? ;))

If you are not sure how to do that with the new BLOGGER INTERFACE -
Check out Quilter BOB for a quick trip around the new BLOGGER INTERFACE -
And step-by-step instructions for creating our “TESTING 1-2-3” post - ;))

SO - now that you are here -

Let’s PLAY with the new interface -

Might as well -

It’s going to be like this -

Until they decide to change it again - ;))

===

Anyway -

Log in to Blogger -

Say “Hello” to your new DASHBOARD -

Underneath all of the BLOGGER - “Look How Great We Are” - Crap -
That you can watch/read at your leisure -

Find the little ORANGE BOX on the right next to the name of your blog -
It has a little WHITE PEN/PENCIL in it -

“LEFT CLICK” on that - and you can CREATE A NEW POST -

===
NOTE TO BLOGGER:

Funny thing -

If it had SAID - “CREATE A NEW POST” -
WITHOUT having to hover my mouse over it -

Or just - “ NEW POST” -

I would have found it a WHOLE lot faster -

‘Cuz I am one of those who can actually READ -

And don’t need a PICTURE with a PEN/PENCIL in it -

What are we - cavemen??

===

Anyway -

Rather than put you at the top -
Where you can enter the TITLE of your post -
Blogger puts the cursor on the first line of your text -

SO -

Just in case you accidentally save this post as “whatever your first line reads” -
And - believe me - it will - ;))

At the top - find the box that says - POST TITLE -
Type in TESTING 1-2-3
Go back to the text area -

Hit ENTER three times -

Then type - (in caps) -
BOLD - then hit ENTER twice -
ITALICS - then hit ENTER twice -
UNDERLINE - then hit ENTER twice -

Then - go back to the top -
“LEFT CLICK” on SAVE first -
Then PREVIEW - to see what you have -
Then CLOSE the PREVIEW tab at the top of the screen -
And “LEFT CLICK” on CLOSE -

That should take you back to the POSTS page -

If you “LEFT CLICK” on the ORANGE BOX with the WHITE "B" at the top left -
Or the MY BLOGS right below it -
You will get back to the new version of the old DASHBOARD -
Too bad they just didn't call it DASHBOARD!!
===
NOTE TO BLOGGER:

An ORANGE BOX with a WHITE B in it is another picture -
And could mean ANYTHING - or nothing at all -
Why not an ORANGE BOX with the WORD - “DASHBOARD” in it??
===

Find the little ORANGE BOX on the right next to the name of your blog again -
To the right of that is a little thingy that looks like TABLET OF PAPER(?) -
if you hover the mouse over it - it should say GO TO POST LIST -
“LEFT CLICK” on that - and take a look - and then come back to the "B"

Then find the little ORANGE BOX again - and the TABLET -
To the right of that is a BOX WITH AN ARROW -
If you hover your mouse over it - it says “More options” -
“LEFT CLICK” on the ARROW -
And you get a whole list of things -
“LEFT CLICK” on the POSTS - look familiar? ;))

They just moved stuff around - for no apparent reason!! ;))

Have fun trying to find stuff!! ;))



But then again - it’s probably just me.
