Edit your template

No problem Jennell. Here are the steps to do what you want on that template. I have to replace the HTML tags delimiters (the greater-than / less-than) with curly braces or blogger will not let me publish, but you know what you are looking for.
1.Sign into Blogger
2.Click on [Change Settings] for your blog
3.Select the {Template} tab
4.Scroll about 60% of the way down till you see a line that says:
{p class=”post-footer”}
5.Cut the “posted by” stuff and as much of it as you want to move but leave the
{p class=”post-footer”} and the {/p} at least
6.Scroll back up a few lines to the {/BlogItemTitle} and paste your cut stuff after that but before the {div class=”post-body”} line
7.Click the [Preview] button.
8.Modify things as needed.
9.Click the [Save Template Changes] button when you are sure everything is right.
10.It will tell you that you need to republish, do this and be happy.

For everyone else: this is geek stuff you can ignore it. I will put a link to the Two Weeks in Japan blog over in the links area.

Yes, but he did a very good job of writing it as "Geek Stuff for Dummies" because even I was able to follow it and the problem is fixed.

Thanks a bunch!

My geek abilities are limited (yeah, that's my story and I'm sticking to it) to what you told me to do to fix the "posted by" thing.

How would I move just the comment thing and leave the posted by thing?
