Week 1: Templates

I decided that the stock templates available on blogger were simply too plain for my tastes, so I have installed a new one.
I had some trouble installing the new XML coding. Initially I was trying to copy and paste it without choosing to modify the layout first.

Once I realised I needed to midfy the layout first, it was pretty simple. Just use google to find a layout I liked, download the XML code, extract the files, and cut and paste in place of the original XML text (remebering to back up the original), simple!
Next step modifying the code to suit my particular tastes.
