You can implement the translate widget to other languages if Google Translate supports those languages.

Hi
I'm tagging you for a "meme challenge" as I've been helped so much by your blog.

Jeisea,
I notice that at the end of your post you have pasted the URLs of five blogs but not their links!
Will I have to do the same? Because in your meme rules you say that you have to "Tag 6 people at the end of your post by links to their blogs".
Also does it have to be six or can be any number?
Hi.. thanx for this information.. Ireally want it... :)
This is a test comment after setting up OpenID and leavng my blog URL in Sign-in using Any OpenID field.
Testing OpenID thanks for all the great tips!
Hi All thanx for sharing.
This is great tips.
I tried doing this with a PayPal button I created using my own photo ... the link is there, but not the photo. Any suggestions? Thanks!!
Stephanie,
Where did you upload the photo? What is the link of the photo?
Vin, your posts are so helpful! Thank you so much for all that you do for us newbies, you are greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Vin, for all of your help! Your blog has been a lifesaver! You are greatly appreciated!
hey thanks for all your great tips i will have to use some of these in my blog and thanks again!
very informative blog. hope to see more tips in the near future..
Thanks for the tips
Your tips are great
Hi Vin
Sorry I'm so long getting back to you. I should have put links in the meme challenge. Actually it would have been wise to link to the names of the others but I've had a few hassles trying to embed links with the name. Still so much to learn. Six is the number the ones before me have posted but I can't see why you should stick with this number.
Thanks again for your help.

So does this means that having a paypal button on your blog will let you earn money everytime someone click or view your and page But not necessarily for them to click on the paypal donation button? am i right? is that how you earn by blogging?

Nice tips and a good collection you have
Great blog!
hi vin , you place amazon ad at your blog, can you tell me how to do that?
right now i am very desperate about my blog
http://dvdbuyer.blogspot.com/
i have 400 people saw my blog, but nobody click the adsense :( , do you have any tips?
thanks
me,
You have to register as an Associate at Amazon site. Then you can get the Ad. code to paste in Html gadgets in your blog.
It is against the TOS to ask people to click Adsense Ads. You have to Optimize blog for Search Engines so that they deliver Ads. which are closely matched to your content. Then only people will click on them.
where should I paste the link from paypal into the "edit template" window? after which code exactly?
thanks
Sarah au Togo,
Blogger has replaced the "Add Page Element" link on Layout---->Page Elements tab with the "Add Gadget" link.
Click 'Add Gadget' link and in popup window scroll down and click Html gadget. Paste the code under Contents.
What are tax ramifications of money received via PayPal? Do you report it as ordinary income, or what?
homegrown colorado girl,
Depends on what services you received it for and what category you are going to declare it under?
Test comment.
Thanks for the info
Thanks so much Vin
I love you man!
