China-Red for Blogger

China-Red for BloggerHere comes another red after the "Red train". The China-Red for Blogger is based upon the original China-Red template was designed by BigheaD for WordPress 1.5. His theme and my adaptation for Blogger are released under GPL. As usual the template comes in two flavors, with a ready-to-use Hindi template (click the picture along-side to see the screen-grab).

Hope you will like it! Please let me know your thoughts and any problems encountered through comments here. If you are able to remove any existing bug or incorporate any important change that would enhance the template, do write back.

Important instructions:
  • Save the images in the zip file on your server and replace the URL http://www.myserver.com/ in Styles appropriately.
  • For the comments to work you must replace the "blogID=XXXXXX" in the template with your blog ID (go to the Blogger dashboard and put the cursor over the Blog Name to know your Blog ID).
  • You must set the "Enable float alignment" property to "No" (Settings > Formatting). Setting this to “yes" causes layout problems with the top-most post.
  • If you are changing an existing template, do remember to keep a backup as all your customizations would be lost on using a new template. We would not be responsible for any damages.
Enjoy!

Red Train for Blogger

Red Train for BloggerThe Red Train template for Wordpress caught my fascination the moment I saw it, so it was much tempting to convert the same for Blogger. More than the colour scheme I like the Banner image. The only drawback is perhaps the bullets on the sidebar that don’t appear like bullets. The original Read Train template was designed by Vladimir Simovic for WP 1.5. His theme and my adaptation for Blogger are released under GPL.
