Tip: Minimalists, take
note—you can make your home page change to blank, and if you're a

page can't be beat. In Step 3 above, click the Use Blank

page. If you select this option, your current home page may be
replaced without giving you a warning. To restore order, follow the
steps above, and do your home page changes yourself. Don't say
"Can't change home page" ever again! |
