pun(ch)(in)ello - XML blogger template

>>>> UPDATE: May 26, 2009: I have no idea why this zip folder was needing a password with Windows unzipper (but able to be opened with WinRAR - WEIRD!) but I have updated the link to a zip folder that is now actually unzippable! Sorry for the weirdness! It seems that I have skills that even I didn't know about!

I love a good damask pattern and the extremely talented Jennifer Furlotte at Pixels and IceCream has made available this beautiful pattern (see live preview below). This is a 3 column template which has two sidebars in the right hand side. As you will know, I like to make my blogs very customisable (I hate it when you download a Blogger template and cannot edit any of the fonts or colours!! URGH!!) and this one can be changed quite a lot: you are able to change both the "inner" blog colour (mid purple) and the sidebar box colour (light purple).

I therefore think that this blog template is pretty cool. If you have a different background image you want to use... why not change that too? (let me know if you need help doing that, but it's not too tricky).

The design works with "new" blogger - ie: it's an XML template. Please ensure that you backup your widget data, as installing a new template will wipe/erase your current widget content.

PS: I host all the images for my free templates on a premium photobucket account. This is not, unfortunately, free of charge :( I continually pay for this so that the images on your templates will not appear as "broken" and your templates will continue to look awesome. If you would like to help me out with paying for this, why not donate $1? You don't have to, but I would appreciate any help I could get with this, so $1 isn't too much to ask for I hope (if you are horrendously rich and want to donate more, my paypal email is: freebloggerdesigns@gmail.com). If you are horrendously rich, I would also like a pony. A pink one. Thanks!

  11. Hi Tracie: sorry you can't see the background. It's only 950px wide, maybe your computer is set to a narrow setting as most screens should be able to see the damask either side of the template.
