Black n White Elegance - 3 column blogger template

OK, so the small preview image below looks kind of lame, but if you click on it to preview the site, you'll see that it looks a lot better full size. Also, how awesome do the adsense ads look in there? (I hate it when they never really look quite right!).

Please note that the background colour is changeable. The header has a transparent background and therefore won't look good with all colours, but it does look good with many. Here are some examples:

orange


pink


green

All the colours are changeable from within the "Fonts & Colours" area. Enjoy!

Faux Jungle - XML blogger template

Awww, I love this one - it's kind of tropical (which cheers me up a lot as I'm in the middle of winter here!) - I plan on making different inner background colours, just in case you don't like the dark brown, so stay tuned. I'll try and post them in the next day or so. Hope you like this one. xx Oh, and if you have a really long header or description, you may have to make it smaller in the "Fonts & Colours" area so it fits.

PLEASE NOTE: That your blog header title/description will NOT SHOW UP! I have created the design this way so that the Sylvia Plath quote is visible and your blog title is hidden. I have included the Photoshop layered file in the zip folder and blank jpg and blank gif... so if you want to change it yourself... you easily can (assuming of course you have some kind of image editing software)!

LolliPopper - free XML Blogger template

Here is a delightful lollipop themed blog template (header image by Flóra at Flickr.com - CC 2.0) and I adore it! There are quite a few changeable elements to this design - the border colour (pink the example), the background (grey in the example) and the inner blog colour - below the header image (white in the example) are all changeable. So you can make this template as bright as you like! Enjoy!

This Little Piggy - free XML template

There are so many weight loss blogs out there so I thought I would try and make something to offset that! Haha, so here is a blogger template that embraces my inner piggy :-) This also has a navigation bar (instructions to change these links are within the blog code >> just go to Layout > Edit HTML and scroll down to near the end to change the links). More detailed instructions on what to do can be found here. Enjoy!

Oh, and I have made the nav bar colour changeable from within the Fonts & Colours area. Hoorah.

Paper Dolls - free xml templates! Two options! Woo!

Here are two pretty paper doll templates (dolls are sans heads I'm afraid). I like them and I had trouble deciding which one to put up, so we have them both.
The #2 template includes the Photoshop - .psd - layered document so you can change the words in the speech bubbles. If you have any questions about this, let me know.

PAPER DOLLS #1:

As noted above, I have included the Photoshop doc for those who wish to alter the speech bubbles. If you install the template as is, then they will be saying "Hi!" and "Why, hello!", just like in the test blog above. Confused? Let me know.

It's Retro Baby! - free xml template

OK, this is a simple but sweet retro template, perhaps it should be called "minimalist retro" or "simple retro" - anyway, you get the drift I hope. It's just simple and cute... with navigation bar. You can find how to add the links within the code or you can read the info below.

1. Log into blogger. Click on "EDIT HTML"
   
   
2. Scroll down the large box of code until you see the following (it's near the end)
   
   <li><a href="'/'">Home</a></li>
   <li><a href="'#'">Link Here</a></li>
   <li><a href="'#'">Link Here</a></li>
   <li><a href="'#'">Link Here</a></li>
   

To add your own links:
replace the "#" symbol with your link URL and then edit the "Link Here" text to be the name of your link (see colour coding below). So if you wanted to put a link back to me, this is what you'd change one of the lines to be:

<li><a href="'http://www.yummylolly.com'">Yummy Lolly</a></li>

You can remove or add any lines as you wish. You just have to add them before the </ul> code.
Let me know if you have any questions.

The Owl and the Pussycat - XML blogger template

I adore this dingbat font (ding delights) and wanted to make a template that was quite cute and not too serious, so I decided on this one - almost forgetting that the owl and the pussy-cat were in a "pea green boat"! Whoops. Luckily I remembered in time and their boat colour was salvaged! I don't know if the cat in the story was ginger, but my favourite kind of kitten is a ginger one!

I have included a PDF with instructions on how to replace the header image - alternatively you can leave it as it is and it will look the same as the live preview (the header will say "Sugar Sugar").

The header font is Black Jack and the description font is Rickles.
