Learning and improving

Hi everybody,

After a few days surfing the net, I can say that I learned a lot about how to blog and how to create a blog.
I am presently visiting all your blogs and I am trying to find some stuffs I would like to use in my blog.
In my opinion, a blog must include two things:
First, an attractive topic or theme.
Second, it must have something attractive or out-of-the-coomon. Nice colors, pictures, etc.
What is your opinion on how to create an attractive blog?

I am still thinking about how to introduce some animated gifs on my blog
If you can help me, please you are welcome

See you all soon.
