The first House Points that you are eligible for are for placing the HSKS4 logo in the side bar of your blog. There is a tutorial, which is linked to the right under important info., that will help you in placing the HSKS4 logo on your blog. Actually linking the logo will take a little more finesse and require a little HTML knowledge and that you host the image on a remote server. Nevertheless, here is the code that you will need to link the logo:
Blogging in Character
I must congratulate one of our early participants! Such an ingenious idea! Ms. Beanswallow has signed up for a gmail account, which gives her access to a Blogger account under the same name, and has decided to blog in character. What a wonderful way to communicate with your House and the other participants during the swap. Of course you don't all have to run out and create new blogs, but I thought that I'd bring this idea to light. If you choose to blog in character, please inform me of your character's blog url when you sign up and I will link you.

Have realised that a Mother of three young wizards would hardly be a first-year at Hogwarts! Nevertheless I'm going with it because I'd rather blog as some-one like me, than as an 11-year-old!
Jenean - Are you Winifred Wartbobble, and if so is that actually your picture (looks great!)?
Also (sorry about all these comments!) do you know the sign-up form doesn't ask for blog addresses? How will I earn my house points for putting a button link on (I did it!!)
I also noticed that the sign-up form didn't ask the blog addresses. I'm sure our Headmistress has a plan for that though. ;)
I am very excited as this will be my first HSKS! I included my new blog address next to my secret e-mail address on my application.
Oh!!! A definite boo-boo on my part! Thanks for noticing, I will definitely change that now.
I have the logo in my side bar and a link to the blog, but not a combination of the two. I am technologically challenged, but what does one expect from a student at a school that doesn't use computers or even ballpoint pens.
Should we email you our blog address if we have already sent in our application? I sent it in at about 4am EST. Thanks
Aahhhh! Are there two Penelope Pinkstones? I am one, under Gryffindor, but there is another under Ravensclaw. That could get confusing. Please advise.
Thanks,

It's okay. Your actually names are quite different, so not to worry.
I have added the logo :)and created a character blog.. .woo hoo!
I created my basic page today and I need someone to link it for me - The location is http://bloomslanghouse.blogspot.com/
Thank you
It took a bit of Badger determination, but I was able to post the swap logo as a clickable link to my blog. ::celebration dance:: And I did it without having to hex my muggle computer!
