Failed Muso: New format

New format

Well, those (two) of you that regularly read Failed Muso will notice a change in the template. I felt a bit bored last night, and geed up by my latest acquisition of a LaCie 500GB external HD and the ensuing tidying up that followed, I decided to make a change. Sadly though, Blogger's own templates are fairly limited and lacking inspiration. I did like the way this template stretched everything across the whole page as opposed to the other one that concentrated it in the middle. I figure most people are using 17/19" monitors at higher resolutions so it won't be too much of a problem. If you're not, wake up and smell the 21st Century !!

Anyway, I'm sticking with this for now.

I did a Google for free templates in XML (the way Blogger now implements templates) and found some nice ones. One inparticular took my fancy, but every time I tried putting it on, Blogger wanted to delete some of my list widgets down the right of the page and I couldn't be arsed to write down all my links and then re-input them.

So, if you know of any really good XML Blogger templates that are free, or if you're that way inclined and want to design one for me (again, for free !), post them up in the comments section please :o)

  • Ooh, ooh... who are the two regular visitors? :)

    You can do a fair amount of simple editing to the built in templates which will take the generic look off them. Adding an image to the title banner is enough for most people. Link colours, font types and sizes, background colours etc. can all be changed with a few clicks of a button too.

    Try seeking out websites belonging to the creators of the current blogger templates. They might offer new templates and at least with them you know they should work. That said, the website belonging to the author of my blogger template, www.DarrenDelaye.com, isnt working so maybe thats not the best idea. :)

  • I'm useless with XML so I really do need a decent template, but whatever I find online seems to be crap or in the wrong format.

    Anyway, I'm sure you've noticed the new header, created using my very limited Photoshop skills !

    Here's to more fuckin' about with the format !!
