  1. The next time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as a lot as this 1. I mean, I know it was my selection to read, but I in fact thought youd have some thing intriguing to say. All I hear is usually a bunch of whining about something that you simply could fix if you happen to werent too busy searching for attention.

  3. I don’t understand this point:

    7. Create a new template for comments.

    Where should I create this template? What should be included?

    And btw: Where do I change the font colors inside the comments?

    Thanks for any help!

    The sidebar widget is showing up but without connect with facebook logo and comments are not being sent to facebook either. I have added the extra bits to my header file too. Really stuck here any help would be appreciated.
