Change Home, Older Posts, and Newer Posts with Icons



Hi guys once again :)
This tutorial will help you in changing the "Home", "Older Posts" and "Newer Posts" buttons with Iconz.
Isn't it cool? yep it is. This give you blog a better look and gives your reader a view that you are constantly doing something fr your blog. Older posts and newer posts are old timers. We need something interesting every now and then to get our blog going and making it look professional and cool. This is going to be simple as all my other tutorial. As usual just follow the steps.
Before doing this back up your template.
Here are the steps:


  • Log in to your blogger account
  • Go to Design>>>Edit HTML
  • Tick "Expand Widget Templates"
  • Then find this code :

There might be two types of such codes but find the same exact code as above 

  • Change the blue words with image script 



Examples :







So it will look like this :
