Customize Labels Cloud in Blogger

This is how labels look in cloud display:



This is how it will look after you apply the new style.

How it works?

Each label link is nested inside a span tag followed by a class named label-size. If the font-size is not specified the widget changes font-size of each label according to its post-count. Therefore showing big and small clouds. Introducing custom styles would over-ride the exiting styles thus changing the entire look. 

Turn Random Cloud display into Blocks

The code below can be customized in several ways to create exciting label designs. You can also add background images to them.
Follow these easy steps:

1. Go to Blogger > Settings> Layouts
2. Click add a gadget and choose Labels                     
3. Inside the settings make sure to choose the cloud display. You may set other options as per your requirement. See the screenshot below as example 

Please choose to display at most 25 labels. Too much labels on homepage look awkward. Showcase your best categories only.
