On the recent post showing how toDisplay A Default Avatar For Anonymous Comments a comment by RedCheriiasked "How do you put those little icons beside your post details (author, date, label) and make them appear below your post title?".The icons and details RedCherii asked about can be seen below the title of this and every post on Spice Up Your Blog.So for Redcherri and anyone else who likes them, in this post i will show you how to add them to your blog.What we are adding is the default Author Name, Post Date And Labels from the post with 16x16 icons to the left of each.I also have a pipe character splitting each, the code will be placed in your template to display this directly below the post titles.

Optional Change The Icons - The icons are highlighted in the code and you can change these by replacing the image URL.The icon you replace them with should be 16x16 pixels.
Step 4. Save your template, how easy was that.
