To start, go to the Setting section on your blogspot dashboard, scroll down towards the bottom and make sure updated editor is selected.
After you have done that, go to the design tab and click Template Designer
This is where the fun starts! The first step inside Template Designer is to choose your template. There are 6 different templates to choose from and they all have variations. Play around and see what you like best.
Once you have chosen your template, move down to background. Use one of bloggers many backgrounds or upload your own! Blogger will even suggest color schemes that match the background. You need to click the arrow next to the picture to see the possible backgrounds.
Next, skip the adjust widths tab and go down to the layout. Choose how many columns you want, which side to have them on, and what you want your footer to look like. NOTE: the widths readjust themselves after you choose a layout, this is why we are choosing a layout first.
Now, you can go back and adjust the widths. If you want to be able to post the extra large photos, increase your entire blog to 1000 pixels.
The last step is the funnest! Go to advance and choose which fonts and colors you want for each element. Blogger has recently added more fonts. Just make sure to choose one that is readable.
There you have it! A new blog design without coding and without spending money! Have fun revamping your blogspot blog!
