Blogger updated template

Does anyone know how to rid Blogger of the hammer and sickle 'being edited' symbols AKA the screwdriver and spanner symbols?

Or are they now a permanent feature? Cos it makes it look like my page is never quite fully ready for readers...

Anyway, the pages now have the shiny new gadget of an in action blogroll. If you post, a taster will appear here. I've not added everyone to the list at present so if you're not on there and you're updating, let me know. Likewise if you want to come off my list, then do so!

I'm also not sure about the followers business? What's that about?!

If you log on to your blog without signing yourself in, you'll see that the screwdriver and spanner are not visible to your readers, only to you. I can see mine (if I've signed in), but I can't see yours.

I think they are just there on your own page if you are logged in. In any case there are no Russian style icons on your page when I look at it.

Re the followers, I suppose it's like a little visible fan club. I don't know if it will take off, but they are there on my page in mini pictorial form and we will see what happens.

That makes sense - but of course mostly i look at my site when I have signed in... thanks!

I think if you can get rid of them, if you don't want to see them when you are logged in

*pokes around own blog*

If you go to Settings, underneath where it asks about letting search engines find your blog, it asks "Show Quick Editing on your Blog?" change to no and the symbols will vanish. :)

Sorry, ignore the first 'if' in that first sentence... and add a full stop.

I think it might be time for bed!

I don't see the hammer thingie. But what about some stripes here, it's too dull for your personality.

Not sure I can add more stripes but I may try adding some more pics of me with read hair and stripes.

Will that work for you Joe?!
