How to Make a Badge for a Blog (6 Steps)
Go to a free online badge generator where you can pick out the text, size and colors of your badge.
Open a graphic editing program such as Adobe Photoshop. If you don't already have a good graphic editing program, you can download a free trial of Photoshop or a free, open source program such as Paint.NET.
Create a new file in your program that is 125 pixels wide by 125 pixels high. This is the standard size of a blog badge. Do this by choosing the size when you create the new document.
Open the file that holds the logo for your blog, or create one if you don't have it. Right click and 'Copy' the image from your site, or simply type the name of your blog on the new file that you created. Find a freeware image or clip art to add to your badge. Make sure that however you decorate it, it represents the look and theme of your blog.
Save the badge to your computer when you are satisfied with it. Make sure you save it with a file extension of .jpg, .png or .gif. These extensions are the ones that are used the most often for badges. Go to a free image-hosting site and upload your badge. When you upload it, the badge will have a URL so you can put it on the sidebar of your blog for people to use. If you have a domain that is hosted on your own server, you can upload the badge with an FTP program or from the online file directory in your host's control panel.
Put the badge on your side bar with a line of HTML code. If you uploaded your badge to a free image-hosting website, it will most likely give you the code you need for your badge to show up. If you uploaded to your own server, use this code to place your badge on the sidebar of your blog (replacing 'yourdomain' and 'yourbadge' with the correct names):

How to Download Video Links (10 Steps)
Locate the video that you want to download. If the video is hosted from YouTube on another website, go directly to the YouTube website link by clicking the YouTube icon in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen. If you try to get the video from a website hosting the video, it will not work properly.
Copy the video link from Youtube or other video hosting website. If the video is part of a multi-part series, copy and paste each link into a word processing document to keep track of them.
Go to Clipnabber.com. On the main main look for the pasting box at the top of the screen. Paste the Youtube link into the box and click 'Nab'. Wait a few seconds for the website to analyze the video link and find the file.
Click on the 'Download' link that appears underneath the box. Choose a location to save the file and press 'OK'. If it is a multi-part video, save the video as 'Part_1' or 'Part_2' so that you can keep track of the video a lot easier.
Repeat this process for the remaining videos. The videos are usually downloaded as an FLV file, so they will play in applications like the VLC Media Player, but not much else. You need to convert the videos to make them compatible with other programs like iTunes, DVD burning applications and Windows Media Player.
