Thanks Aiman. Ur designs are great so are the instructions! =)
I can't seem to get the images uploaded... :S
Wonder what's wrong...
I try to follow the instruction but failed when it comes to replace the url. It shows cannot find http://photobucket.com/albums/replace
How to open the template script?
Thanks for pointing out the error, it has now been fixed.
the site where you are sharing your templates is not working =(
I've tried to change the template bit when previewed it stated that "oops!image...no longer here..." Why?
i hav the exact same problem
just figured it out. There is a second part of the html that needs to be replaced.
Scroll down the txt document to find:
/* -- basic html elements -- */
Here u should find a 2nd link that needs to be replaced with ur own details.
Thank you so much! Your templates are great and the howling wolf was perfect for me!
I really like your templates, but when I try to put the saved images to photobucket it wouldn't let me because it's a .zip file. Is there anything I can do?
thanks for your help. I've never worked with .zip files. I can't wait to use the new layout! I was really starting to get tired of the one that I've had for eons!
cool..thanks soo much..ur really creative..
keep it up!!
how come i cant get to upload the template on photobucket? it says that there are invalid formats. how do i fix this?
heya! thanks a ton for that guide on how to upload the images. it was damn helpful i tell ya! thanks.
abd yes, ur templates are brilliant =)
I followed the instructions...but i am but when it comes to replace the url. It shows cannot find http://photobucket.com/albums/replace i am not able to do so...what do i do?
Any idea why the template looks great when viewed through Netscape, but is misaligned (especially the sidebar) when viewed through any other browser (such as Internet Explorer, or Avant, etc.)?
Everything looks great otherwise! Thanks
Hey. I have followed all of the instructions but my blog for the pink flowers template but the background is just blank. I have done everything I thought I was supposed to. Please help!
Ok Ive done everything and up to the last step:
6. Now Copy the entire text in the script file and Paste into your blogger template
My question is where exactly do i paste it in my templae?
Id hate to screw the whole thing up.

any ideas why?
hi
I seem to have a unique problem.... my sidebar seems to be tagging along at the bottom of the posts. Any ideas? I have seen it happen in other places sometimes and it happened when i appended my own sidebar contents into your template.
Help!
How do you get the image to on the whole screen?
Mine is just small in the middle.
I have finally managed to change my site template thanks to the advice of Nomaadic in these comments. You should really update your advice to include this as it would have saved me an hour or two of increasing frustration.
I know have just two problems as far as I can see, I cannot get the main Hong Kong skylane to appear across the top and my comment links seem to have a problem. Can you help me with these please?
Kind regards.

I had the same problem.. please help?
Problem solved when i switched back to "classic template"... when using blogger beta, when u want to edit html under templates, at the bottom of the page, there's this link "revert to classic template" or something like tat.. so click that and it would switch back to original blogger. and just follow his instructions.
I'm using Aman's Quilt design and Hearts N Flower design. Both has clean and neat layouts.. it was a good template. Fabulous!! Thanks darling~!
Hello,
I was looking around and i couldn't sleep. Beside, I love your splash templates. I tried to upload it but it wouldn't let me because it's a zip file. I would appreciate if you let me know how to fix this situation. Please email me with info to fix.

Hello! I'm Mew Kathy, and I'm ten. (I know you are probably older than me, but I know HTML pretty well) I really love your templates, but they don't really match my blog. You see, my blogs have stories that I wrote on them, and I thought it would be cool if the template consisted of a picture of a character in my book. I really want to know how you make those awesome templates. Don't take offence of what I have said, but would you please tell me how to make a template?
Mew Kathy
(P.S: If you agree to show me how to make a template, you can post a comment on either one of my blogs.)
I don't know what you mean by "ext". What's that? Do I need a photobucket account if I want a specific image?
Mew Kathy
P.S: You can reply by posting another comment. Thank you for your time!:)
The downloads are no longer available?
My, these are great templates.

I am having only one little snafu in my template. I love it completely but it won't let me add anything to the sidebar. I need to add a ring that I am in as well as my glitter banner. They are currently showing up in each post instead. How do I fix this?
I cannot replace the url in the notepad
I´m triying to use the "rain" template
I don´t know if you had explained how to do it before,it´s because I don´t understand a lot of english
Please, if you could help me, I would be very thankfull
SoirWolfenstein
I have a solution for you. If you create blog, it switches you to the new version, alternatelly coded. Allyou haveto do is to switch to the "classic template" and there to paste all code, realyy all codes availableon many blogs outthere and these too.

Ok, can i ask you a question, webmaster? How can i add a counter and a chatbox or other things when i changed my template? I tried but i gave up!
Are you using new layouts or old blogger? If you are using new blogger, then get the javascript code for the counter and chatbox, then click "add a page element" link in page layouts and select "HTML/javascript" element and paste all the code there.

Hi, I followed all the steps but seem to end up with only a pink background. Do you know where I am going wrong?
Step 3 says: 'After uploading Copy the URL (without the file name.) which appears in the textbox below the uploaded image;'
so what exactly should I remove from this URL?

I'm using your rain template. I've got everything to load on a test blog using the classic template. Is there a way I can load it onto my existing blog without losing all my previous posts? I'm using the new blogger format. Email is under my profile.

Thank you very much :)

What if i am using Mac OS X and my laptop doesn't hv notepad?
Hi,
I chose the chocolate delight template. I went through the instructions but my blog is not showing the images. The background is coming completely white.
Although I can access the images using the link in the script separately in a browser even then I am not being able to see the theme on my blog.
Please help.

why i can't upload this template?
I'm so sorry to bother you, but when I tried using the Splash template, my entire blog disappears, and I was wondering how I can fix that since I followed the instructions exactly (Or maybe I messed up somewhere?)
sorry i have seen ur written tutorial...now i will try this..
thanks
hi, i downloaded your splash template. however, i can't find the content-wrapper within the splash html code. could you help me please?
Very niche template. I like this. Thanks for share
hi~ thinking of using your splash template. after i put the pics using my photobucket and all, it works. but the prob is the header and all the text is at the left side while the background image is at the centre. tried fixing the code amateur style but failed miserably. any help is much appreciated!!
hey, I copy and paste my original content-wrapper tags into the same section of the new template, like what you did in the tutorial video. but this line comes out:
More than one widget was found with id: Header1. Widget IDs should be unique.
How to solve this problem?
Thank you so so much for your helo and template! =)
There's a ton of white space at the right side of my screen after I downloaded the template. Photobucket says that I uploaded it as the largest photo that they could, is there any way to fix this???
your layouts are amazing! thanks!
Everything is to one side when I put my template on! What can I do to put it all in the middle?
This is what I mean:
