Ahoy Hair! - free XML Blogger template

If anyone wants to make me one of these ship headpieces, I would totally wear it! :-)

Also.... please note that I love making things customisable so I have made the 'inner' background and main background colour customisable. So basically you can easily alter the look of the blog. Check out some combos below:


Lemon, perhaps?


Or a delightful dark purple!?

To change these colours, all you have to do is go to the Fonts & Colours tab within Blogger and change them to whatever you want. REMEMBER that the stupid colour palette that Blogger provides aren't the only colours you can have!!



You can look up any HEX colour and imput the six digit code into the box and hit "return". A big 'ol list of hex colours can be found {here} or a good colour selector {here}

PS: massive thanks to the delightful pinkonhead.com for the wonderful woman/ship/head Photoshop brush! I love it!

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:

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.

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.
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.

Date Night - free XML blogger design

Here's a cute design with the retro woman fixed into position (bottom left corner). If you have a super narrow screen resolution then it might look too squashed, but test it out for yourselves with the below testing blog...

Yes, the woman is static. She will stay in the bottom right corner forever *sigh* she's never going to meet her Prince Charming!

Old Time Collars - Free Blogger XML template

I think pictures of old fashion can be really amusing, so saying that, here's a design that's quite funky and uses some old pics of collar styles. Won't be everyone's cup of tea, but it's very "me" (meaning you'd be hard-pressed to find a template like this one). Perhaps I should do more "classic-ish" templates, but that's not the way my mind works most of the time.
