NOTE: the inner blog (blue) colour and the pink border colour are all changeable from within the "Fonts & Colours" area of Blogger.... so there's a million combinations. This template is nice and bright... I hope you like it too.

Custom Colours - 100% customisable blogger template
Sunday, 15 June 2008

Here is a blogger design with NO graphics - you can fully customise all the colours (background, 2x borders, inner background) and create whatever kind of look you want. I've made the test blog a greyish/blue, but you can do whatever you like. I like this idea a lot....

Martini Free Backgrounds (tiling)! 10 images - Zipped and ready to go!
Wednesday, 21 May 2008

Martini background image (in 10 colours) avaliable for free! You can use these images in your personal blogs, scrapbooking or any other personal/commercial work. The only rule is that if you do use them for commercial works, you have to show me.

(oh and the second and most important rule is that these images must, under NO circumstances be put up on another website for download. It's up to me when and IF I ever do that).



You can see the red image in use over at the "Retro Bar Fly" blog. Pretty swell.
I was going to say "chin chin", but that means "penis" in Japanese! So if you yell out "Chin Chin" in a bar and a table of Japanese businessmen wink at you - you'll know why!

I have had this background stored away for the last few years but I have no idea who it's by. The background image can be found here. I originally downloaded it (the background) as a MySpace template, which makes me think that it's OK for non-commercial. Anyway, hope you enjoy it!

Note: the inner background colour and the border colour is completely customisable from within the "Colours & Fonts" area.

You Make My Heart Go "Boon" - free XML blogger template
Monday, 7 April 2008

Hello everyone, I am back on board and here's a design for you! So named as bees don't say "bzzzz" in Japan, they say "Boon", and it always makes me giggle. The background colour is changeable from within the "Colours & Fonts" area so don't fret if you don't like pink.

PS: I have included photoshop image and a PDF file with instructions on how to get rid of the boring text header (seen on the test site) that comes from yr Blogger Dashboard so you can make your own pretty headers with actual nice fonts if you so desire.

PPS: As far as I am aware, the image is in the public domain. Artist unknown.

Cookie Top - free XML blogger DIY template
Monday, 3 March 2008

I love brown when it's done well (that sounds so odd to say) - but other, brighter, colours tend to look very pretty with dark brown. Anyway, I love this template. It's 750 pixels wide.



(click for a live preview)

The design is free and 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.

This blogger template is for those of you who are comfortable editing images and uploading them to the internet (and then replacing the image path). YOUR BLOG TITLE AND DESCRIPTION WILL NOT SHOW UP - this design is not interactive from your Blogger Dashboard.

Until you edit the image yourself, you'll have the same header as I do on the test site.

ALSO - here are some FAQs:


"WHY did you make this design like this?"
Two reasons really - one: you can edit this header image - remove the "Blog Title Here" text and put your own thing in (you can use any graphics editor to put your own text onto this banner and there are waaaay more font choices than the silly old internet can handle. DaFont: droolworthy!) and two: I just thought it would be more interesting - and things are definitely better when they're more interesting ;-)

"I don't want to edit my own header image! Can you please let me know how to make my title & description come through from Blogger?"
No. Your blog title and description is NOT going to come through (and actually "fit" in the correct bit), so bad luck.

"What graphics program can I use to edit this image?"
I have Photoshop CS, but you can use any graphics program that allows you to open/edit a JPEG or GIF - which should be pretty much any graphics program. I have included the PS file, GIF and JPEG.


"Ok, I made my own banner, now what?"
Now you'll have to upload it to some hosting on the internet. I host my files on photobucket.com (a free image hosting service) but there are more options out there.
Upload the file to the internet, then find the URL of the image.

Next, go to the "Layout" >> "Edit HTML" section of your blog.
You will need to replace the original header image - seen on the test page - to be your own.

Scroll down until you find the following image path:
http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa231/free_blogger/CookieTop.gif

.....and replace with the image path of your new title. Viola!

This is a re-doing of this design (classic), slightly altered - a bit funkier than the original and this time, your heading and description is visible. Looks best with the grey Blogger nav bar.
