Add Author Box Below Blogger Posts

add author information box below blogger posts
Ever thought of adding a author box at the end of a post giving information about you to your readers? Its a common feature on many wordpress blogs, and now its possible to add it on blogger blogs as well.

Here is a step-by-step instruction to display an author box. Go to Design--Edit HTML, click on expand widgets and search for this code -

]]></b:skin>

Add the following code just above that -

.author_info {
float: right;
width: 573px;
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;
margin-bottom: 15px;
margin-top: 15px;
background: #eee;
}
.author_info h3 {
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
.author_photo {
float: left;
margin: 0 0 0 10px;
}
.author_photo img {
margin-right: 10px;
border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;
}

Now look for this line of code -
<div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'>

Insert the following below it and save the changes -
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<div class='author_info'>
<div class='author_photo'>
<img alt='author' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tbHfaj1A058/TSGc3fOc-NI/AAAAAAAAL7A/GU6dmnqINik/s1600/images.jpeg'/></div>
