How To Create And Add A Stylish Signature To Your Blogger Posts


| | 25 comments
Create Signature BloggerIf you look at the bottom of the posts in many blogs you will see they finish with a signature.I think the signature looks great and adds a bit of style to the posts.These signatures are very easy to create and add to your blog and in this post i will show you how.You can actually use a small pad to write you signature or pick from one of hundreds of pre-made signatures.I suggest using the pre-made signature, using the pad to create your actual signature is almost imposable.

Create the signature


Im going to create another signature and walk you trough the steps as i do.

Step 1. Go to My Live Signature and click 'Start Now' you don't need to register.

Step 2. You have 2 free options here, choose to use the wizard as i did or be brave and try to write one.

Write in your name as i did below :




Choose the font you want to use from the hundreds they have and click next as below :



Follow the steps to design the signature :

-You now choose the size i choose size 3.
-Select the color, i choose a transparent background.
-Choose the angle slant, I choose 2.

Now your signature is ready, click on 'Want to use this signature?' as below :


Now choose 'Generate html code' you will be provided with the code :

This is the code for my new signature :
<a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/48/010EAA2D956848A1728F82E9602766AD.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>

And this is the new signature :



If you know how to upload the image to Blogger or Photobucket or any image hosting you may want to do that, if not don't worry we will use it as it is.

We only want the image and we don't want the image to be a link back to My live signature so you can remove the code in blue and keep the code in red :
(If your not sure how just change www.mylivesignature.com to the address of your blog)
<a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54488/48/010EAA2D956848A1728F82E9602766AD.png" style="border: 0 !important; background: transparent;"/></a>
Add the signature to your blog

There are two ways to add the signature to your blog the first way is the easiest but it wont be in you previous posts.
The second way adds it directly to your template.

First way to add the signature to your blog.
.
1. Click 'Settings' in your dashboard and then choose 'Formatting' in the top menu as below:






2.Scroll down to 'Post Template' and paste in the code and save:



Now everytime you you go to write a post the signature will be already in the post.

Second way to add the signature to your blog.

In your dashboard Click 'Design' > 'Edit Html' and cick the 'Expand Widgets Box' :
Design Edit Html Widget Templates

Find the following code in your blogs html :
(Click 'CTRL and F' for a search bar to find the code)
<data:post.body/>

Paste the code for your signature Directly Below or After <data:post.body/>

Note : If <data:post.body/> is in your template twice place it after the second one.

If you have any trouble or need more help leave a comment below.Now save your template and your signature has been added.

  2. Thanks Tom,

    I have used it for as long as i can remember and it does add somthing unique to your blog.

    There is a way to upload your signature but (for me anyway) it wont be as cool.

  3. This is a great idea.
    Love it.
    I already have in my template formatting 'Currently Reading:' then I just add the latest book I'm reviewing to it. I assume that you can actually use the signature creator to make any kind of message, like 'Follow Me' and have it link back to your Twitter page etc.

    I bet there are many uses for this cool app.
    Thanks so much for the great info-- as usual!
    And I really appreciate the directions and graphics on how to add stuff to your template for convenience. Awesome!

  5. Actually on your other point of using the signature in differant places i am going to write a post on using the signature maker to make a header for your blog.

    It would be such an easy way to make a cool header.

  24. Hi I love this idea and use it on my blog. I was wondering if there is any way to put my signature AFTER people click on "read more" ?
    right now my signature appears before every single "read more" link. Is there a way to change this? thank you
