I shall post a friendly guide to making blogskins:

1) Find out how html/css works. If these are alien to you, you've got a long way to go. Nice ways to start would be to see the blogskins you download from blogskins.com and to check out the codes there...tweaking around a little till you see what everything seems to do. Another way would be to go straight to a html site that explains html. Another way to to search 'Nature Dreams' on google and find sixseven's site. Or well i could try to teach :P

2) Get inspiration. a feeling? a picture? could be anything. This is the hardest part for any design and is usually why many designs end up horrible :P including mine

3) Photoshop/Paint Shop! do not try to design skins/anything with the paint program in accesories in your computer...that is just weird.

4) have time. Set priorities right. This is when i go wrong :P

anyway, i leave ya with some interesting quotes

all the Japanese players' names sound like food you order from a restaurant!

Inamoto isn't playing, that makes him Outamoto!! ahahaha *insert weird laugh here*
