Blogger has a space for you to add any sort of custom code snippets to your template and all you need to do is copying and pasting the code snippet. The best thing is that once you add the custom CSS code there, the changes will be reflected in the preview mode before even you save new changes to your template. So it allows you to play with CSS codes safely without spoiling your template and you can apply only if the code snippet works as you expected. It's very safe indeed and you don't need follow safety tips like you would do when you have to edit your blog template. How interesting is that? ;)
