On Macro of micro I've found a script which makes it possible to publish picture within a Blogger post. To use it, you need to add this javascript to your blog template (place the below codes in your blog template design- Edit HTML just above </body> tag):
<script src='http://hosting.gmodules.com/ig/gadgets/file/105066904960012479556/nccode.js' type='text/javascript'/>

This solution is placed outside of this blog but a great one!

Blogger shows by default 20 posts per page when you click specific label from your labels widget. But maybe you want to show less because page loads too long... or you want to show maximum (which is 100)?!
Go to Dashboard > Layout > Page Elements > Edit Html > Expand Widgets
Search for this:
<a expr:dir='data:blog.languageDirection' expr:href='data:label.url'>
<data:label.name/>
</a>
</b:if>
<span dir='ltr'>(<data:label.count/>)</span>
<a expr:dir='data:blog.languageDirection' expr:href='data:label.url + "?max-results=5"'>
<data:label.name/>
</a>
</b:if>
<span dir='ltr'>(<data:label.count/>)</span>
Well, yes, you can use RSS feed as a method to backuup your texts and immages on your blog. It's not a bad idea especially if you host your pictures on free web hosts (and the can get lost).
By default, Blogger sends latest 25 posts in your blog feed, and it looks like:
http://YOURBLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
Change this address in your browsers address bar to:
http://YOURBLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?max-results=500
(NOTE: maximum number of posts to appear in your feed is 500)
Now you can save all of your 500 posts with pictures!
If your blogger template doesn't show links for "older posts" and "newer posts" find this line of code:
#blog-pager-newer-link {
float: left;
display:none;
}
#blog-pager-older-link {
float: right;
display:none;
}
#blog-pager {Read More......
text-align: center;
clear:both;
}
When you use this hack,you will see this kind of navigation on your blog’s home page and label pages(needs little customization).

By default, label pages display 25 posts assigned to that particular category (if there are enough posts filed under that label).
For those who write long posts or use many images, this can result in long page-load times for label-based blog pages.
Here is an easy way to limit the number of posts displayed on label pages:
1. Go to Layout>Edit HTML in your Blogger dashboard and ensure you have checked the “Expand widget templates” box.
2. Using the search function of your browser, find every instance of this phrase:
data:label.url
data:label.url + "?max-results=X"
As you my have noticed, I'm pretty much against free widgets spread over the internet because they are not relyable. There is much easier way to publics popular posts on your blog (criteria is post with most commets).
Go to your Layout tab / Page Elements, click on Add a Gadget, and then choose "Feed". Put inside following:
http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.run?_id=1cf38ae68efbe859c4ba1ee239cec099&_render=rss&num=50&url=http%3A%2F%2FYOUR-URL-HERE
Name it something like "Popular Posts" (or whatever). Save everything!
1) Make sure you did not entered your URL starting with "http://" (because there is allready one at the beginning) Just put after "F" yor blog name like:
my-web-solutions.blogspot.com
2) Make also sure your "Comment Feed" is not set to "None" (Settings/Site Feed).
3) Sometimes, if it doesn't work, for a couple of minutes (hours) - it will come up! But when it does, it will work perfectly!
Enjoy!
You want Recent Comments on your blog? Like a widget on your sidebar? It's pretty simple. I suggest you don't use some widgets on the internet because they are not very reliable. Today they work fine, tommorow they are gone! Instead of that you can use a simple trick: use blogger feed service!
Go to your Layout tab / Page Elements, click on Add a Gadget, and then choose "Feed". Put in the following path:
http://YOURBLOG.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default
Name it something like "Recent comments" (or whatever). Save everything! Enjoy! If comments don't show up, make sure you did not entered twice "http://" (because there is already one tipped by default), check if the feed is working by enetring the same link into your internet browser. If everything is OK, then relax for a couple of minutes (hours) - it will come up! But when it does, it will work perfectly!
If you use custom domain, use following path:
http://www.YOURDOMAIN.XXX/feeds/comments/default
By the way, if you want "Recent Posts" in your sidebar, use the same procedure and following path:
http://YOURBLOG.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
or for custom domain:
http://www.YOURDOMAIN.XXX/feeds/posts/default
Searching for an ideal template for your blog on Blogspot you might have expirienced that many of them, especially those "sofisticated" ones have some elements which can not be removed. Usually, it´s the search bar or "subscribe field" or something like that. But many of us feel more confortable with adding elements we like as a wigdet to the sidebar (like I did with the search field on this website).
Beside of the estetic issue of this problem there are also some financial aspects you might think about when changing fixed elements. For example, you might be an AdSense subscriber and using the Google search bar could bring more benefits than using built-on search. So, how can we do it? It´s pretty simple:
Go to your Layout tab and then to Edit HTML. Use search funciton of your browser (Ctrl+F) and look up to string which has locked='true' in it, followed by title='Header Ad Banner' (or whatever). If this title correspodents to the page element you want to get rid of, change locked='true' to: locked='false'. Save your changes to HTML. Now, go to Layout/Page Elements, click to Edit link of yor element and now you will get "Remove element" option visible! Remove it and enjoy!
After you register at Blogger there is usually on top of your page a small navigation toolbar, also known as Navbar. At first I thought it must be there. And than, I've seen so many bloggs without it?! Many of custom themes doesnt have it. This made me take a closer look at Terms of use. I didn't find anything dealing with Navbar?! Unless you see something I didn't?! So, if you have a nice theme and you use a nice banner in your header, you might like to remove this thing.
To do that, go to Settings/Edit HTML, and somwhere on top find and insert into your template the red marked piece of code:
<head>
<b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>
<title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
<b:skin><
Select "Show Ads between posts" - and you will get setting options for AdSense - it´s size, colors and your UserID-a. This is so simple, there is no need for further explanation.
If you still don´t have an AdSense account you can easily register using your username and password for Google (and for blogger).
2. There is also a tweaky method for inserting AdSense directly into post body. Important: Google allows not more then three AdSense units on one page, counting also those shown in your sidebar. So don´t get confused if you have a lot of post and AdSense shows only in the first 3 of them!
First you have to copy your AdSense-unit script. You will reach the best result if you choose a small unit, maybe the smallest is the best one. Then, you have to make following changes (don´t worry it´s not a real "any change of code"):
< with <
> with >
" with "
Now, you have to insert AdSens script into your blogger template. Go to Layout/Edit HTML, and checque “Expand Widget Templates”. (this is a must!)
If you want your AdSense shows in left upper corner, put AdSense script into this place (you can search complete HTML code using Ctrl+F in your browser):
<div class='post-header-line-1'/>
<div style='float:left;margin:5px 10px 15px 20px'>
AdSense Code
</div>
<div class='post-body'>
<p><data:post.body/></p>
<div style='clear: both;'/> <!-- clear for photos floats -->
</div>
The part "float:left" can be changed to "float:right" and AdSense will show up in right corner of your post. You can also change margins to achieve the desired distance between AdSense and the rest of your post-text.
