Please note that the design can be altered from the "Edit Colors and Fonts" tab - not only can you change the main background colour, but also the "inner" background. Go crazy!
For example:

black & white:



or something more, ahem, colourful:


(the side bar backgrounds won't change to keep a little consistency with the header image - which is by Vlad Studio by the way. Beautiful!


Did you know
that you are not limited to the colour choice that you are greeted with when you go to the "Edit Colours & Fonts" window. It's something that slightly annoys me, but it's a minor issue really. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of colours you can chose from.

Want to know how to do it? Just visit a hex colour page like this one or this one < that's better - and select your colour (it will look something like #FFFFFF - which is white). Then copy this code into the hex colour code box and viola - you have a colour not on automatic offer.

Be careful not to enter two "#" characters or it won't work. Happy colouring!

I have been losing all my widgets looking for a 3 column blog but I settled with yours. Is there a way to save this hard work? Thanks for yours anyway

Hey Casey,

I'm sure the bX-xdw9gt error comes from trying to change your template too many times in the one session (only a guess from experience). Try logging out of Blogger and then going back in or try switching to one of the standard Blogger templates (from the Blogger website) and then back to the customised one you want. Hope this helps.

Hi Anon (and sorry for taking so long to respond, Casey) -- but yeah I have noticed that sometimes, on odd occasion, there will be a Blogger error that comes up. I've found that it's something to do with a minor panic within the browser -- usually if you use another web browser it wont be an issue. Alternatively you can wait a few hours and it usually comes good.
