Raining Cats and Dogs and three questions

Today we are in the middle of a major typhoon and the rain is coming down "cats and dogs"! (I just taught that phrase to some of my English kids.)

Here is a picture of Cleo and Patora and here is a picture sleeping Vel and another one of a very muddy Choco.
So with not much to tell you about, may I ask a few more questions?

I'm wondering how some of you friends out there manage to get your signature at the bottom of your posts. That seems like a nice touch and I have even visited the website and "made" a signature of my own but when it gets to the part about "copy and paste into your html" then I don't know where to paste it. Does this mean paste it in each time you write a post? Is there a way to paste it into the template (HOW?) and then it comes up automatically at the end of every post? I'm lost in the depths of computer lingo.

Another question. From next week I will be in the States and away from my desktop computer. I think I can still get into my blog if I remember my Google (or is it Blogger?)account code and password. I'm pretty sure I did it that way last summer when I stayed at my brother's. Supposedly I'll be able to post from someone's computer that way (maybe not with any regularity). I've only this year started using g-mail and does this mean I can get into my Google account with the same number and password? I'm not promising, but if so I could still reply to a few comments now and then right? So I just keep that Google information with me at all times right?

Next question. How do I get into Bloglines from another computer? I couldn't even figure out how to change from one server to another earlier this year (from Mozilla to Explorer) and never did get back into my Blogline subscriptions. I had to build a new account by going through comments on my blog from January. This means if I'm on another computer and I don't know how to get into my subscriptions then I can't visit anybody for a month...and I'll get completely swamped when I get back. I'd like to visit even if I don't comment but I'm not sure how.

Thanks for any help.

Tanya,
You can log onto your blog account from any computer. Just remember your login name and password. Gmail is the same--login and password.

I go between three computers -- work, home and my parents. I am not that advanced on computers, but I manage and I am sure your can, as well.

Most public libraries in the U.S. have computers for patrons to use. Many hotels have business centers with computers for their guests to use.

Best of luck and a safe journey,

Tanya, I hope you got what Janet said ;-)
To log onto blogger from a different computer, go to Blogger.com then click on MY ACCOUNT and login. If you can't remember your user name and password, Go to the log in screen, and there will be a link for the lost password page. On that page, you will be required to enter the email address that you used to register with Bloglines. Your password will be emailed to that address. As long as you know the user name and password, you can look at your bloglines from any computer.

Your blogger name and password is probably the same as your Gmail sign in. So you can get onto blogger or gmail from any computer by going to gmail.com or blogger.com and just signing in
Gmail will remind you of your user name and password if you have forgotten those.

I hope we hear from you while you are enjoying your trip, but certainly don't take out your valuable visiting and shopping and relaxing time for us if it is too stressful! Have a great trip!!!

I'm afraid I can't help at all with your questions (so why am I bothering to comment you may well be thinking!!!). You have asked one of MY questions though, about the signature, so I look forward to seeing if anyone comes up with the answer for that. Your cats look as if they've got the right idea. Have a good trip.

Those photos of your cats are so cute! Just how I feel when it is raining and stormy!!
Good luck with all your questions but sorry can't answer any of them!!

I think the answer to questions 2 & 3 is that you need to know your log-in & password. (I access mine from different computers all the time.)
