the reason i was not able to add the overlay or the reason my tabs looked completely off was because i chose the wrong theme. i had picked the first pink default wala i saw in the menu (the bubblegum one) and moved onto other things. matlab chalo, id say part of it was a bit better definitely but all the good blogs (ive linked them in the sidebars) had the translucent base. what i did differently to change the look permanently was ditch backgrounds and fonts and work directly with the default themes. now the effect of the screen having an overlay is all due to the picture window option (open) which of course NO ONE TOLD ME.
ANYWAYS. right after that i got started on my blog posts. i fixed the font and the colour palette and started working on new tabs. now, tabs can be of two types. one for the pages and one type that includes posts according to all keyword tab topics (labels). what i opted for was the tabs for pages which can be achieved very simply by adding pages to the layout>cross column.
you can add new pages under the blogger editor dashboard by clicking the new page after clicking pages.
next, i added labels to all existing posts which be done by clicking this icon when viewing your posts through the dashboard. you just need to hover on your post in the list. the posts can have labels that distinguish the post categories.
obviously i added pretty gifs to everything it was SUCH A TASKKKKK it was such a task my god i had to resize everything again and again, i re-added the playlist widget as well that was one of the easiest widgets ever. also like just a heads up i started writing this post very long ago (not even that much) but ykwim i got distracted and fixed up more things lmfao. so obviously there's more cutie patootie insane amount of coding updates and two more small layout updates. i added a notification banner on top so i can put short updates of course. i also managed to make the read more button. earlier, my issue was the the fact that on my home page, the posts were showing up as long form texts which they are but i didn't want the home page to reveal the entire post T-T which is why i coded in a read more button. this im not sure how to add a code for because this was a lot of trial and error and i watched tutorials on twitter and facebook omg.
along with these i added one qna form widget and also a poll for everyone's dream thrift find <3 but guys theres two more cool updates one which i did before plus the reason i actually sat down to write this post AHAHAHAH okay let me just say it. i added a tiny bratz doll that tells fun facts about me heheheheheh. i did this through a tutorial sugar kissed letters did. speaking of sugar kissed letters. i managed to code a widget like the lisa's world thing on my own ive been hyperfixating on fonts so the layout was pretty straightforward i made it a bit more complex by adding more personal elements like the shopping self care, the variety of foods and an eating animation (all of my absolute favs), the little vanity, a beagle during playtime too! all these things are strictly not ai i used a dress up app to build my mini me and all other things are colorgraded plus taken off pinterest hehehehe. im not sure if my happiness meter will work the same as hers but i dont mind i just love the idea of tamagotchi like items always <3
would you like me to bring in a dress up button in the minigame? it would be so cute and fun now that ive figured out the interface <3 let me know babies!! im not one to gatekeep so ask away as always!!! i'm super sleepy it took me an entire evening to do this heh
