Dilectio Template

Click to enlarge Dilectio Blogger template

Here’s a nice three column modern artistic Blogger template with some nice bells and whistles. It has a cool search box and “About You” section with a red/orange background along with a custom date/time stamp for each post. This template is only the second one ever to include javascript tabs within the sidebar. That means instead of the page reloading each time you click on a tab, it dynamically clicks over! Check out the live demo to see it in action.

This free Blogger template is also setup for you to easily add Google AdSense and make money from your blog. If you don’t already have Google AdSense, you should read more about how to make money from Blogger and sign-up. The ad format and colors you should use to best match this template are illustrated below. The 300 x 250 rectangle with #fff3e2 for the border and background, #cc0000 for the text, and #856d65 for the title and url. This will make your ad block blend in nicely with the light pink second column.

You’ll also need to setup the header tabs before they appear. Just edit the “top tabs” widget and create the tabs you want. The “Home” tab automatically appears once you create your first tab.

To setup the recent posts and comments cool dynamic tab section you’ll need to paste in your rss feeds. Read this article on setting up your Blogger recent comments and posts section.

The rest of the configuration is pretty straight forward. If your individual blog post date stamp doesn’t show up, you’ll need to make one more change. Go into your Blogger’s “Settings” tab and then click on “Formatting”. Next, change the “Timestamp Format” (it’s the 4th one down) to this format => “Wednesday, February, 2008″. Make sure you change the “Timestamp Format” and NOT the “Date Header Format”. Many people in the past have told me it didn’t work only to find out they were changing the wrong field.

This template was originally designed by Design Disease for WordPress and was converted into Blogger by Blog and Web. eBlog Templates decided to take it one step further and enhance it to include the dynamic header tabs and javascript recent posts and comments tab section.

Aspire Template

Medieval, parchment, and scroll blogger templates seem to be very popular these days so we’ve taken the liberty to find another great one called Aspire. This three-column Blogger template comes dressed up with all the goodies a knight of the round table would want for his blog. You get a search box, recent posts and comments widgets, a custom built date stamp for each post, and more.

In order to get the recent posts and recent comments widgets working, you’ll need to read “How to setup your recent posts and comments” post.

Not to worry, all the images are hosted via our Pro Photobucket account so you won’t experience the “End of the month blogger blues” which happens to thousands of Google Blogspot Bloggers every month.

The dynamic date on each post is handled by a custom written javascript function which is embedded into the template as well. Most other templates you download link to an external .js file so at any point the date might stop working on your blog.

If you like this template you might also enjoy the Parchment Blogger template as well.

Thanks to Info Creek for designing this great theme and also porting it over to the new xml Blogger template for you Blogspot users!

This nice Autumn flower Blogger template is quite pretty as well as functional. The header image contains a nice picture of flowers (Sunflower, etc) so you can use it for a florist theme or any other creative blog you can think of. It’s a two column template with header tabs and all the great page element features such as:

  • Recent Posts
  • Recent Comments
  • Ads
  • Author Profile

In order to setup the recent posts and recent comments page elements you need to read this post. You’re also welcome to remove or modify the Ads page element since the default ads are Google AdSense and Text Link Ads. The page element is just an HTML box so paste whatever ad code you want straight in there. The default ads will just disappear automatically.

The design was done by Free CSS Templates and converted by eBlog Templates just for you! Enjoy.

Here’s another beautiful web 2.0 Blogger template. It’s fluid width which means when you maximize your browser window, it stretches the entire screen. Besides your standard right side page element area, this template has header links as well. You’ll need to edit the .xml template code to change them though which is easy to do. In the header are three icons for your homepage, contact, and sitemap which you’ll also need to update the links to.

Enjoy this beauty complements of Francisco who converted it to Blogger and FreeCSSTemplate.org for the design work!

Curved Template

If you like the new rounded web 2.0 look, you’ll love this template. The aqua blue tabs and frame complement the black striped header background and white post and right column area. This Blogger template was originally in Spanish but I translated it for you. Don’t worry, it wasn’t too much work since only a few things needed to be changed.

There’s a nice search box to go along with this template which works right out of the box. In order to change the tabs you need to edit the template code. Don’t be afraid though if you’ve never touched html code before. Just open the .xml file in a text editor like notepad.exe or wordpad.exe (or you can even edit it directly in the Blogger code window) and search for the following area:


Now just swap out the “#” for a real link and change the tab and title names. Easy as pie. Then save the template and copy the code back into the Blogger editor window.

This template was designed by Just Skins and ported over to Blogger by Francisco.

Styleicious is a cool web 2.0 style Blogger template with tabs across the top right. The header is a soft aqua blue and the body contains 2 or 3 column, a nice footer where you can put your post archives, and a search box to boot.

To change the tab urls and names you need to edit the template code. Open the .xml file in a text editor and then search for this:


Now you can change the hrefs and tab names to whatever you like.
