width : 48px;
height : 48px;
background : url(https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbns7wPfve87NP0z7A3_9jpyWFS8cBoM6rGojTIXDrr9Y-r3iMb00zj7bmC3864QDPjpyZ-sIt5IGdBHRz2x9PXEynfivmlksOx-3bg9NkfrcTMjq6416e80CIRHVtrRKkVAisfVV8I3i7/s1600/speech+bubble+green.png);

<h3 class='post-title entry-title'>

</b:if>
Note:
  • to change the color of the comments number, replace #ffffff with the hex value of your color;
  • to change the font size, increase/decrease the 18px value;
Step 7. Preview your template and if everything is ok, click on Save Template.
