Some changes before saving it.
- to set the number of comments to be shown, change the "5" value from the orange line
- for the number of characters, change the "67" (for the 2nd widget, it is 95) value from the green line
- to hide your comments, replace the Blogger User text TWICE with your name
- to change the size of avatar, change "50" from the blue line.
- if you don't want rounded avatars, delete this line:
-webkit-border-radius: 100px;-moz-border-radius: 100px;border-radius: 100px;
Step 4. Save your widget. You're done.
