Directions for creating your own BlogSpot

Hi, everyone,
To set up your own account in blogger.com is easy. Just follow the simple set up directions and customize your page according to your own taste. You may visit Photobucket.com to upload one of your own digital pics and "host it" from that site to use on your blogger profile. Please do not include any personal information on your blog space in terms of your address, phone number, or id. Your blog should reflect your thoughts on the course content, and while I want you to be creative, please refrain from profanity or nudity. Leave feedback for at least 2 of your peers each week.

To create and post your blog each week:
-Click on "New Post" at the top right corner of the screen.
-Clearly label your blog each week. Your title would be: Blog #1 (or whichever number corresponds to that week).
-You can add an image to your blog, if you desire, by clicking on the picture icon at the top right of the editing toolbar when you are composing your Blog.
-To view a classmate's blog and post a comment:
-Click on a URL posted by a classmate in the BlogSpot Discussion Board forum in our Women's Health Blackboard course.
-To post a comment to a classmate's blog, click on the title of their blog, then click on "Post a comment" or click on "O comments"

Enjoy!
