If you've ever noticed, the label and archives gadgets on AJGC are in a cute little scroll box:
This way, the labels and archives gadgets 1) are more interactive; 2) don't take up as much room in your valuable sidebar or footer space. These two gadgets (archives in particular) begin to look junky if they extend for too long. If these gadgets are "scrolly," your viewers can scroll down to look at your posts from years ago: but only if they want to. ;)
Now onto the actual tutorial...
To make the labels "scrolly"
To put your labels gadget in a scroll box, paste the following code into your blog's CSS.
To make the archives "scrolly"
To put your archives gadget in a scroll box, paste the following code into your blog's CSS.
Pretty easy, huh? Boom, now your archives and/or labels gadgets should have a scroll bar. ^.^
