This template looks like a piece of art, and it also has a healthy amount of features. Lets take a look at what this gorgeous two column template have to offer our blogs.
It starts off with the blog title on the top left of the header and the blogs main navigation tabs on the right of it, further right is the rss icon with virtually unnoticeable links to subscribe to the blog.
The sidebar finds itself on the left hand side of the main column, with a neatly made widget for the labels, the remaining widgets find themselves with a transparent background. The end of the sidebar has a nice search bar.
The main column is unusually as it starts with the labels before the post headline, it ends with the date and comment count. The end of the main column has a flickr photo stream section, but whats best about this template is the background design and the design that has been applied for every section of it making it an outstanding template.

I love this template!
But I can't find the way to get the dates on my messages. It says "undefined"! And I don't know how to edit the "contact" tab. Shame on me!
Can you help me?
visit >customize>settings>formatting>date header format>month, day, year
or, try the same with time stamp and month, day, year
This worked for me in Notepad Chaos. It probably will work here as well.
i like this tamplate.can u tech me
Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure all XML elements are closed properly.
XML error message: Element type "a" must be followed by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>".
I tried uploading the XML doc and that error message came out. I also tried opening the file in Notepad and copying the codes into the blogger template. Same error message. What do I do?
@ mimi286 - The template is working fine, just tried uploading it on one of our test blog.:) You can try again, it will work this time
OH MY GOD..this is awesome!Thanks for making this templates ;D
i keep getting an error message saying:
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
The server did not understand the request, or the request was invalid. Error processing resource 'http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtm...
@ Jodi - It likely due to a blogger server error while you were uploading the template, so
try again :)
i got the same error 3 times
i'm using firefox
nothing seems to be working :(
i really like the template but no help
thanks anyway
@ sheretha
I just uploaded the template using firefox without a single error...
just try another time or day you seem to be having some bad luck
I love, love, love this template. But I am having problems editing the tabs at the top. How do I use the tabs, "home", "about us", etc. Thanks
@ Jessica Mackey - Go to Edit Html, search for this code,
<div class='Menu'>
<ul>
right below that you have to add the links to the respective sections. There are already some links put in, you need to replace those with your own links.
hey.
i had downloaded this blog template, but i am facing the same problems like Jodi, ive tried so many time but still the same. what can i do? i need this template for my competition. HELP needed !
@ emms n jodi
you need to be on the new version of blogger not the classic version for this template to work for yall. If you still get the error message try clearing your cookies cache etc and upload it again. The template is perfect as you can see others as well as I have uploaded it to check..
All the images were not working when I uploaded. Did I do something wrong?
@ Toby
I have added the image files in the zip folder, you would need to host them on your own and add the required ones in the template. You can see the video guide for more details in the uploading a template video
is there a way to upload this without deleting all the widgets? It wants to delete my blog archive, profile, etc.
@ jess
no thats not possible but you can always backup ur widgets and then put them back once your done uploading the theme...
Hey! I just realised that 'archives' was spelt wrongly.
It's archives. Not 'arhives'. :/ Is there anyway to correct it? I really love the layout. But that spelling error just bothers me...
@ Profile: - Those are actually images, the menu bar, each one is an image, thats how the designer has made it. This is the image url for Archives in Edit Html - http://i425.photobucket.com/albums/pp336/creativeartimages/m3_hov.jpg - if you know how to modify it in a photo editing software, then you can correct the spelling. :)
@ Bhavika
I modified it using Photoshop and I put it up on Photobucket. But I can't seem to find the html part of the template to exchange it with!
Help please? Thanks...
@ Rachael
have you tried using find and searching for m3_hov or hov.jpg in edit html? that should work
whenever i post with images the text gets skewed and unformatted by the blog
@ Jason - You need to align your images within the post. In each image code, try applying the following code -
img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;
just play around with the margin, it shud work:)
hello..
i manage to upload the template...
now i have problem on how to edit thosetab such as home,and wanted to add new tab such as contacts...
how to link all the content to the tabs?? i am freshie... hope u can guide me.. thx..
@ xh^ll_liza - Go to Edit Html, search for this code,
<div class='Menu'>
<ul>
right below that you have to add the links to the respective sections. There are already some links put in, you need to replace those with your own links.
There is a Contact tab already in the template. You might not be able to add more tabs since these are images, so unless you know to use photo-editing software to create a similar tab image, you wont be able to add more.
SO I tried uploading this template on internet explorer, safari, and firefox, and it didn't work on any of them. With each of them I got this message:
Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure all XML elements are closed properly.
XML error message: Content is not allowed in prolog.
@ puppypaws
try again im pretty sure its a blogger error as I just uploaded it without a hitch...
