  1. Robin,
    Have you tried clearing your cache and/or cookies and then restarting your computer? Sometimes you just need to clean up those things to get her back to normal.

  3. I hope you get things fixed Robin. I dont even mess with mine. I am so afraid I will lose everything. Changed mine one time and lost it all, had to go back and put everything in. Im not doing that again.

  4. Can you get into the Dashboard and click on HELP? If you go into HELP GROUP and do a search, usually you can find others with the same issues in the forums. I find most answers there....

    I hope you figure it out! That really stinks!

    Good luck!

  7. Oh Robin, bless your heart! I wish I could help, but I am so so NOT good at this type of thing. I feel for you, and hope everything returns to normal very soon!

  8. Hope you are able to get it fixed. Wish I had some advice. But it sure is strange! I always worry with templates and HTML. I'm ok with HTML coding with my own sites, but if it's not one I made, then I get nervous. Hope you find out what is going on and can get your blog back the way you want it! I'm sure it is very frustrating.

  9. Robin,
    Guess the problem is still driving you nuts. I see on my blog that your blog was changed 3 hours ago and it is not showing up? Want to see your new pieces, sure hope it clears up for you.

  11. I am so sorry this happened to you; I am afraid to change mine for the same reasons; I did get some books out of the library on blogging; maybe your library may have something to help? The blogger site has some good help ; I used it when I started because I did not know anything! :) (ok; I know less now:p) Hope you are able to recover it soon! Merrie

  12. i wondered what was wrong....i love your links.....please try and get them back......aaaahhhh but i can't help....i'm computer illiterate....sorry

  13. Robin! What Happened!!! Oh my! First thing is if you BACKED up your Template and so on, then you should have the OLD one back...
    I go to a NEAT PLACE to do my "changes"...but I ALWAYS BACK UP First...

    The link is http://www.thecutestblogontheblock.com/
    I changed all my own stuff, with NO PROBLEMS using this site, and I swear they made things so easy. They even have helped thru EMAIL on an issue I was having with the Banner.
    Maybe they can help?? I hope so...

  14. OH Sweetheart... what a PAIN! I went ahead and switched your link be directed to here now.

    But you know... you will fill this up in no time. And if you do get the other one back, just gimme a holler and I'll switch it out again.

    Breath... just breath. :)

    Huggles, Jean

  15. Sorry, Robin, I'm no help. I just remember doing this once and I can't remember how I got it fixed. I've gone in and changed to a 3 column blog by tweaking the html (think that's what it's called LOL) and had it sooooo messed up, I started panicking trying to get it back the way it was. Good luck, and when you figure it out, right it down and keep it filed! Karen

  20. Did you save a backup of your layout????

    Even though I know I can't get my 'posts' back if something happens at least I have the template/layout saved.

    Hopefully you did and you will find it!

  24. It was extremely interesting for me to read that blog. Thanks for it. I like such topics and anything that is connected to them. I would like to read more on that blog soon.

    Best wishes

  25. And how about adding some more pics? No offence, text is really great. Just as I’ve heard visitors acquire information much more effective if there are certain helpful pics.

  26. Mine shows a 'Design' tab now. If I select that tab it allows me to 'add a gadget' like a blog list.

  27. I know this is an old post, but it pains me this happened to so many bloggers, including my self. I got help for the Graphic Fairy. She gives instructions on her blog to put it back the way you liked it. And it was easy with her instructions.

    Hope this helps...
