Girly Magazine is a 3 column template embedded with useful features. The theme comes with dual navigation bar, each above and below the header. The first menu bar can be used for the standard links like Home, About, Contact and it also includes the RSS icon for your readers to subscribe to the blog.
You can customise the header as well, in case you want to change the girl image, click on Edit Html and search for the code below -
.headerleft {
background:url(http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sunpK_FtO1E/SmZu0EeiKrI/AAAAAAAAANM/joaDzltcrVw/s1600/girlmagz.png) no-repeat left bottom;
width: 480px;
height:250px;
float: left;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
Create a new image on photo editing software and replace the .png file with your image url. You can show your recent twitter update on the right side of the header, to enable that go to Edit Html and search for this code and place your twitter username where 'YOUR TWITTER ID' is mentioned.
<h2 class='sidebar-title' style='display:none;'>Twitter Updates</h2>
<ul id='twitter_update_list'/>
<a href='http://twitter.com/YOUR TWITTER ID' id='twitter-link' style='display:block;text-align:right;'><img src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sunpK_FtO1E/SmLUaSyCm5I/AAAAAAAAAIo/171-xow2ueI/s1600/twitter.png'/></a>
</div>
<script src='http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js' type='text/javascript'/>
<script src='http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/YOUR TWITTER ID.json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=1' type='text/javascript'/>
Below the header is the second menu bar that comes with not only a dropdown menu but also sub-categories. You can add at least 12 categories or sections in the menu bar. The main column of the template has the regular layout, except that each post comes in a separate white box and the Read more feature is embedded in the code.
The second column is narrow than the third one, it can be used to display your categories, archives etc. Whereas the third column starts with a search box on top, then if you are making money online there is space to display your ads as well.

Is there any way to take away the "sexy" post someone click the "read more" link. Also, is there a way to remove the "details" from each post?
I love this layout and really want to tweak it to work for me.
Thanks!
@ Mary
can you pass me your blog link so I can see what you are talking about
how do i use the menus?hw to add pages there? i mean, how to remove the your-link here thingy and put a new link there?
@ NoFaIrYtAlE - Go to Edit Html, search for the following code and add the page links you want -
<div class='topnav'>
<ul id='topnav'>
<li><a expr:href='data:blog.homepageUrl'>Home</a></li>
<li><a href='POST URL HERE' target='_blank'>
Template Gallery</a></li>
<li><a href='POST URL HERE' target='_blank'>Dezigntuts</a></li>
<li><a href='POST URL HERE' target='_blank'>Emoticon</a></li>
<li><a href='POST URL HERE' target='_blank'>Login</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
You have to create pages, means create a new post. Hope this solves your doubts:)
I really love this layout and design. However, i would need the photo edited to fit what my blog is about. Is there a way you could do that if I paid a little extra for it?
The blog I am considering it for is: http://ouruglyhome.blogspot.com/
I'm looking for something with 3-columns and a little bit more feminine.

@ Diaz - You can follow the instructions given in the above comments about adding links in the menu bar, that should help. :)
