Great assistance from Blogspot Tips

I'm all new to this Blogger site and am really interesting in editing the page outlook, such as changing the main blog width, adding footer ...  And I came accross to this Blogspot Tips and it has a lot of informative contents!  Even better, Greenlava (the author of Blogspot Tips) replies my questions almost instantly!  So it's such a wonderful help to me as a dummy in this html lanugage.
