HELP!!! :)

So, to all y'all more proficient and experienced bloggers (guess Webster's will have that in the dictionary soon...yay for making up completely new words!) out there, I could use a little help.

How do I get backgrounds on my blog?? I don't want to use the plain Jane options they have here anymore (though I do like pink). Would love something more...me...I tried a Google search but that's like searching for a needle in a haystack. I see such lovely blogs and mine is so boring. I have found some sites that offer templates...but I can't figure out how to get all that new HTML code in without deleting all the little "widgets" on my page. How can I change the fonts (namely the Title font) to something more fun?



Oh...anyone know of a job that might work for me??? Lol!!
