what is a badge? -
-
You can only earn a badge of courage by defeating the end guy, see the discussion "The World is Doomed" for details. -
Do you mean a blog catalog widget? If so, you should be able to find this information on your dashboard.
When you log into your dashboard, look to the right hand side of the screen where the first thing says, "View your profile" -- under that, you will see an option to create a widget. If that's not what you mean by badge, then I have no idea. -
Are you talking about the button that people can add to their blog showing support of your blog (like the thing I have in my sidebar under "show you're a fan")? If that's what you are talking about, send me a shout with your email and I'd be happy to tell you how.-
well kinda like urs fruitcake but just one where I can design the badge and it says like "link to me!" and has the little badge (like a small square) and then a box with html for the person to copy and paste to their html. I know its prolly totally simple I'm just ADD so i go in circles sometimes with the simplest of things (although I can do well with complex things haha)

That's what I have there...I used a small button, but you can use whatever image you like.

Guess what? I have some tutorials for making badge and putting the image with HTML code to be copied on my blog:
How to Make a "Grab My Button" Widget: bloggingwithsuccess.net/grab-button-advertise-blog
How to Design 125x125 Button/Ad for it: bloggingwithsuccess.net/creating-an-ad-for-your-blog
Hope these helped.-
You have been very helpful. Thank You. -
No problems. Feel free to ask questions in comments if you have any problems!
-
Excellent, thanks for the great tutorials! SY

I doubt you're retarded and I know at least a few retarded people who would have no problem creating a button or avatar on a computer. -
Simple steps:
1) Open design program of preference.
2) Make badge.
3) Save badge.
4) Put badge on blog.-
Those instructions could be construed as being complex. -
You're right. Should I remove the vowels to make them shorter?
-
Good call. You could also throw in some excessive punctuation, especially where punctuation isn't actually needed. That'll help to break down those fickle communication barriers.

In case the above steps seem complicated, try these:
1-opn picture app. maek kewl lookn badge
2-sav it. an post it smwher
I hope this helps, because that is my only intention here.-
Epic win.

U guys are queers. I know how to make buttons and I know how to use the whole adobe creative suite. I just didn't know if I needed to do anything special in order to get the white box with the HTML under the badge once it's in place. People who are mean online got picked on growing up. I just came to that conclusion. Oh, and go get laid instead of repeatedly checking this discussion to see what "witty" thing u can say next mean evil haters.

IMO you were being teased and not picked on. When asking for any kind of technical support you can never provide too much detail in your original post. It's my experience that if you don't provide detailed information up front then this kind of dialog will happen but if you are very specific it won't.

Lady, you shouldn't be so reactive or take things too seriously in this forum. We were hoping you'd laugh with us (at least I was).
Oh, well. Maybe next time

you need to type html code withing textarea... /textarea
cover textarea with < > -

Nothing to say here. I just use the Google Friend Connect and Networked Blogs badges. But I did learn something here. Thanks guys. -
I didn't notice any mention of the blog hosting system - blogger - wordpress - other? - oh I didn't check her blog yet that could give me a clue - duh.
I would think the steps taken would depend somewhat on the platform.
Also, I put some other bloggers badges on my (simple with blogger) put I've found some very good free gadgets to add for subscriptions/feeds and such.-
Ok - I check the blog and it appears honeymoonapples (like to hear the story behind that name) has done it. There's a badge up on her blog.
So how did you do it?

No matter how much time we spent on the design or how beautiful the button looks like. People doesn't take it. The size may not fit in their blog.
There best thing is to get a 80x15 size button like blogcatlog
