Beautify Your Blog || Pinterest Mouseover

A few weeks ago I helped host a blogger round table all about blog design. There seemed to be a lot of the same questions from bloggers - they all wanted a simple fix for similar problems. Rather than just share it with the few ladies at the round table, I wanted to share it with all of you. So here we are with my new mini-series beautify your blog. Today's topic? Pinterest Mouseover - The Hovering Pin It Button!

----------------------------------------------------------------------

1. In the left sidebar of your blogger dashboard click "Template".
2. Under the Live on Blog thumbnail click "Edit HTML".
3. Locate the </body> tag near the end of the template - Use Ctrl F or Apple F for easy searching.
4. Paste the following code right above the </body> tag:

<script>

var bs_pinButtonPos = "center";
