CREATE your Tag Cloud for your wordpress.com blog and customize it almost instantly. No special skill is required. But you do need Firefox.
In order to have a customizable Tag Cloud, your first job is to complete all the first ten steps as explained in my previous post.
Now while you are still in MS Word customize the hierarchy and or colour of the tags as you please.
Here are some examples. Feel free to feel inspired by these or think up something on your own! I haven’t explored with different fonts. You might try different fonts if you like. But it is not advisable to change the font size, if you want to retain the relationship among the tags. Also you might want to edit out some tags if you are looking for a concise look and create a Top Tgas/Top Categories page instead!
Example no. 1
This is the default Tag Cloud as it appears without any change. How it will look in your blog depends on the theme of your blog.

Done picking a suitable style? Good, now please finish the steps 11 to 16 as stated in my previous post.
Enjoy your shiny new Tag Cloud in all its customized glory!

As mentioned in my previous post, this will work for Category Cloud also, please read that post for more information.
The default Tag Cloud widget does not allow you to customize the tags in any way. If you want to customize the look of your Tag Cloud in the side bar, simply paste the Tag Cloud created in the process mentioned in this post and paste the code in a text widget. Don’t forget to save changes!

Hey Netty – Can you do this so we can easliy create one of those cool Tag Cumulus Tag Clouds?
Sorry, I have no idea how to do that!
Half of the job can be done with http://www.wordle.net/
but it would need an image map
can I edit also the number of the tags? I have to do this way, or I have a method (I don’t see) also in the wordpress.com interface?
@dott. dulcamara,
Wordpress.com does not have this option. You can do it in the process mentioned and you can delete the tags you want.
