I have never been a fan of the old brown look that this blog has had all these months. Changing a blog template is a daunting task. I found this one from the folks at Blogger Templates and I liked it.
None of the gobblety gook in the sidebar carries over. Fortunately Michael Taylor had a great tip that would be obvious for most folks, but not me, to paste the existing template into a word document so that I could recover the old layout as a worst case scenario.
Doing this requires manually including whatever links and things you want. Using Mike's tip meant this required just a little copy and paste as opposed to a lot of typing.
I'm not sure why the picture of me is so big (I expect this could scare away some readers) and it looks like the recent posts section is listed twice (this is now fixed)but it will work for now.
This went easier than I had expected.
Happy holidays!!
