edit this, mothafucka

well... i spent far too long tonight trying to figure out how to get the title of my blog to shift over to the righthand side of the page.  it's driving me truly insane, as i feel i have tried every method i have found online.  so i'm going to bed, giving up, and will be driven nuts about it every damn time i look at this blog.

what a joy.

see?  it's easy to do in a blog post entry.

Dear Maggie,

First, edit your blogger template. Second, within the style tag, near the top, enter one of the following:
/* option #1 */
.header { text-align: right; }
/* option #2 */
.header-inner { padding-left: 400px; }
.header-inner div { padding: 20px 20px 0; width: 530px; }

See here if you don't know what I mean: http://img.skitch.com/20100806-bq83snxc6kdu8pjjuwb4mq26wk.png

Enjoy!

Your web-designing friend,
Marcos

dearest marcos... i just tried for twenty minutes what i thought was exactly how you showed me to do it. i am starting to think that some people just aren't cut out for editing things like this...

Well dangit. Sounds frustrating! It's possible that Blogger is doing something I didn't quite expect. Perhaps if I can find the time I'll whip together a little screencast showing exactly the steps I take to align the header in my blog differently. If that doesn't work then you could come visit in Portland & I'll fix it for you in person ;-)
