Linking Blogger Blog To Smugmug!

I find it more than appropriate for this to be my first blog post on my new blog!  One, it is fresh in my mind as the query has consumed my coffeeless morning.  Two, it's relevant.  Three, it's so simple that it is difficult, so someone needs to put it into laments terms.

Sooooo, with that being said here are your wonderfully simple instructions on how to link the two.

1.  Create a blog on blogger.
2.  Copy URL to blog on blogger.
3.  Go to "Customize" on Smugmug and choose "Content and Design". 
4.  Make sure you are editing the entire site.  "Entire Site" should be highlighted in red in your right hand reading pane.
5.  Move your cursor over your navigation bar on your page.  It will be highlighted in red. Click on the wrench (options) and then go to links.
6.  Click the + button to add a new link.
7.  Title your link "Blog" (you can title it whatever you want yours to be).
8.  Link to "Custom URL" and paste your blog URL.
9.   Save.
10. Publish.
11.  Finally, drink cup of coffee and smile smugly knowing that it took someone else an hour to figure this out and you did it in 3.5 seconds.

Silly girl, computers are for nerds.  
(I NERDS!) That's why I married one.
