only 1 bad thing

What a wonderful day it was yesterday. It was warm, sunny and perfect. A few blocks over they were having a neighborhood yard sale so I grabbed a bottle of water and went for a walk to see what I could find. I did make one $2.00 purchase that I'll show you later in the week.

Other than that, I spent a little bit of time crafting, I did a little cleaning and even though I did say I was going to stay away from the computer, I did spend a little time in front of it.

I've been wanting a more summery look for the blog so I worked on that and thought I had what I wanted. I did a new header and was totally annoyed that it's cutting it off even though it's the same size as my previous ones. Since I have no idea how to fix that I put in an old one and now I see that it's cut off on the right side too.

Well this is what the new header was supposed to be


Today will be some early morning shopping and I think I'll work on some more projects.

Have a great day

UPDATE: I finally got the new header to fit. I can't believe it was as simple as remembering to click shrink to fit

I love this new header! It's nice to be carried away on the computer sometimes.

Love the summery header! Try changing it to 1050 pixels. That's what I have to make mine in order for it to fit perfectly and since you use the same format, it might work that size for you.

I tried out a new summery layout yesterday but decided I didn't like it so, whoosh, it's gone.

I like yours Ann - especially with Duke in the header. :)

Hi Ann, I have so much trouble when I try to create a new header, too. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. For the life of me, I don't know what I do different.

I do like your summer header and the warm and delightful yellow checks.
It's very pretty and oh, so, summery.
Have a lovely day.

Hey...Anni, the new header works from my point of view! And I love the summery feel to your blog!! You're always so talented.

And the $2 purchase at the yard sale, is it gonna be something crafty? You tease.

Hootin Anni said...

LOL...okay, 'shrink to fit'...that's why it's now working. LOL [read, Anni!! Read!!!]
