<div id='join'><a href='https://www.blogger.com/follow-blog.g?blogID=YOUR BLOG ID'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYhjUqhYGaaY0VYxM9iveOUmI6cxK8S9QvFT8NB_rgTAVihTfdDsPWfsyvov6a147Pk40G92CXvpJmgjAzKAkCxAqDS-p2Vh74KU8ojeaksWexWs4x50LBOTwy00sGrh8w5VFsRKLpCu0/s1600/join.png'/><p>Join This Site</p></a></div>
