Label Gadget - How to make the Label Cloud more colorful

On 25 August, 2009, Blogger upgraded the Label Gadget by adding the much requested Label Cloud feature to it. Blogger told us about the new feature which they added to the Label gadget in this Blogger Buzz article.

The default setting for the Label gadget is to display the Labels as a list, however you can change it into a Label cloud by going to your Dashboard and clicking on Layout and then click the Edit link which belongs to the Label Gadget. If you want to learn how to use multiple colors when you are using the Label Cloud option of the Label Gadget you can click the Read More link.

CSS and links

When modifying the appearance of your links using CSS you should add a:link, a:visited, a:focus, a:hover, a:active in the order I listed and to make it easier to remember the order to add them to the style sheet you might find this phrase "Lord Vader's Former Handle Anakin" useful.

Example
a:link { color: #FF00FF; }
a:visited { color: #FFFF00; }
a:hover { color: #00FFFF; }
a:focus { color: #0000FF; }
a:active { color: #FF0000; }
