UPDATE: AS OF MARCH 1ST 2012, GOOGLE HAS DECIDED TO RETIRE GOOGLE FRIEND CONNECT, WHICH MEANS THE TUTORIAL BELOW WILL NOT WORK ANYMORE. BLOGS USING CLASSIC TEMPLATE WILL NO LONGER ABLE TO ADD THE GADGET INTO THE BLOGS. THIS, HOWEVER, DO NOT AFFECT BLOGS THAT ARE USING THE NEW BLOGGER (DESIGNER) TEMPLATES.
HOWEVER I'VE FOUND A WAY AROUND IT AND IS EXPLAINED ON THIS PAGE: Tutorial: Adding in Google Friend Connect (REVISED)
A lot of people think that the Followers widget is only usable on New Blogger. However, you actually can use it on Classic Blogger templates as well. In New Blogger you can just add the widget with a click of a button but for Classic Blogger, it requires slightly more work.
NOTE: Before making any changes to your template, make sure you save a backup copy in case you screw it up in the process of editing it.
First, you will need to go to the Google Friend Connect page: http://www.google.com/friendconnect/. Log in with your Blogger's details and then you will be taken to the Overview page for the Google Friend Connect. You will need to click on the Add the members gadget button. Customise the settings as much as you like and once you're done customising it, click the Generate code button. Copy the codes, open your blog template and paste them there.
Save your template and you're done.

Hire me to design your blog!
I offer designing and re-designing of Classic Blogger templates. Examples of my design can be found on my portfolio website.
The basic rate for a design starts from $25 USD. The rate is based on the complexity of the design. The more elaborate the design is, the higher the price is.
How to place your order
Send me an email via the contact form and state clearly how you want your design to be. This includes colour scheme, layout (with or without sidebar, number of columns, etc), any extra features, etc.
Your email should be in this format:
Name:
Design: Please give detailed explanation on how you want your template to look like
Preferred payment method: Paypal/Moneybookers/Payza/Bank transfer to Baiduri bank
I shall respond to your email within 3 (three) days. Your order will be placed into a Waiting Queue as orders are processed on a first come, first serve basis.
Payment methods
Payment has to be made to either by PayPal, or Moneybookers.
However, if you choose to pay via (international) bank transfer, be aware that you may be charged for the transfer service.
Other important information
Throughout the designing process, I may need to refer back to you for questions/opinions so do check your email frequently. This is to ensure the design can be done as soon as possible.
Depending on the design, your template make take up to over 1 (one) week to finish. You will be informed once the template is done.
I will send you an email requesting for the payment after the template is done. Once the payment is received, I will email you the complete template along with the necessary files.
All of my designs/templates will come with a credit section. This section must be left intact and you may not remove nor alter them. Resources that come with the designs/templates may not be redistributed or reproduced.
The designer
Kitty. 29. Blogger, web design hobbyist, compulsive shopper and bibliophile based in Brunei. Enjoys creating and designing websites, dabbling with HTML, CSS and PHP.
I've been blogging since 2005 (or earlier) though my experience with the internet started back in 2000. My main interest is in web design and development. Other times you can see me wrapped around a book or glued to Astronomy and web design magazines.
The website
This website was created in January 2011 and the domain was purchased by me in late December 2010. Initially the website was intended to house tutorials for Classic Blogger/Blogspot only however over the time it has developed into what you see today.
Several of the tutorials and articles can also be found on Nekonette.com, which is the my main website where I mostly blog about my personal life. Also some of the tutorials here have been moved to that website.
