What is that?
Favicon is short for Favorites Icon. It is the website icon. It is this...
I don't have one yet, but I plan to install one very soon. I have just been so busy! It really is a simple thing to do though.
Rather than give a tutorial here, I will just give you THIS LINK to the site that has the directions to install this little icon. It is the same one I will be using. You can even choose an animated favicon...one that moves!
Mac users beware! You may not be able to see your favicon on a Mac!

Another item I don't have is a signature. This is a personal choice. For some reason, I just don't want one! Some like it, some don't! That doesn't mean it is considered wrong or "blogger uncool". I read a lot of {amazing} blogs that have a signature.
If you want a simple signature visit HERE and go through the steps to choose your signature.
If you prefer something more like this...
then you will need to do it in Photoshop.
If you have been following the workshop, then you should be familiar with the steps it took to make a header and a button. The same idea is used to create a custom signature.
In Photoshop, go up to File and select New. Set your width to 300 pixels and height to 50 pixels. Now add text and any other embellishments to create a signature.
Once you are finished, you will need to upload it to something like Flickr. After it has been uploaded, grab the code and head over to your blog dashboard. Go to Settings and then to Formatting. Under Formatting post the code in the Post Template box. Be sure to click Save.
Get creative! Mine was just a quick example!
Stay Tuned...
Tomorrow you can learn how to change post title fonts as well as the font in your post.
