I'm not completely familiar with CSS to do it without a little research first. I just started my public one this month, so I'm excited to see where I end up taking it. So, if mine is on the monkey side, I'll be working on it. I just haven't had a consistent site to host it on - myspace is the closest so far and it's too private. I may in the future ask you to offer some advice as I move forward. Right now, I'm just struggling with time commitments with my job that ease up in 2-3 weeks. I do look at what you have done and what others have done and I do agree that some are crap. I plan to work on my blog’s layout as soon as I can.

I pay for it every month. And I think I fare okay since I've only been blogging for 6 months. At least my blog is not on a free platform. I pay for it every month.

I do however think that it is not so much the bloggers template that is what blogging is all about but the content of the posts. Also not everyone is as fortunate as others to have the knowledge of the technology to create their own. Personally I feel that the free templates are in a way advertising for the person that has designed them. I also am the first one to notice a quality unique template as I have been working a website and several blogs for 6 years now. AS I said...the content is the meat of the blog in the end! Have a very positive day! DorothyL Hello….That is funny.

Hello world! My name is Mona… I am a computer programmer and graphics designer.

I am not – sorry.
