Blogger Tube a Super Video Blogging Template

We are proud of Dante Araujo who has created the first video template for blogger, blogger tube!

Blogger never really had a design meant for blogs that were dedicated to hosting video, but that has changed now and video hosting sites on blogger have not got a make shift design but a fully functional elegant design that looks extremely professional.

Now if we move from the looks to just talking about features this template is going to blow you away. All you need is the url of the youtube video and you are ready to go. The template then automatically generates the video thumbnail as well as the featured slider on top, cutting down on a lot of manual work.

There have been lot of complaints on the thumbnails and the slider not working properly, but it has been fixed. Go to Edit Html, search for these codes -

http://fractalblognetwork.com/js/templates/galleryvideo1.js

Download them and upload it on a js hosting service of your choice, and replace the code with the new one.

Apart from that the template also embeds the video on the post page, with a size that fits the width of the page automatically, which is just freaking awesome! This template also has an inbuilt video rating system where your viewers can inform you as to how much they enjoyed each video.

To get this template working is rather simple, in every post you will see this code. "endofvid" [starttext] [endtext]

"endofvid" : This command tells the template that your video URL has finished, so you need to paste your URL just before it, without any spaces!

[starttext] and [endtext] : These are your post content wrapper, all the text that you would like to add to the post or pictures any content has to be between these two commands. If you happen to put anything out of these two lines, it will not show on your post.

So your post page should look like the image below.

Remember this template is built for YouTube, so other videos cannot be automatically embedded am not sure if its possible either. But Dante states he will be working on one for all kinds of videos. Till then if you like this theme go ahead and download it from the link below!

TagLand Blogger Theme

TagLand is a well-designed blogger template created by Dante Araujo. Its a 2 column template with an interesting colour scheme of black, red and dark gray.

The blog title will appear in a rounded header, that also includes the menu bar on the right. The main column displays the post in a regular format, the headline comes in a black box, while the post details like author, time, comments and labels are placed at the bottom of the post. Each post appears in a dark gray rounded box, which gives it a neat look.

TagLand also has a cool search box in the left sidebar, followed by blogger widgets of your choice. Each category or widget comes in a separate box just like the main column. The template is easy to customize as per your requirements.

Zinmag Monezine Template

The Zimag Series for Blogger gets another addition with Cahaya's Monezine Template. Monezine was designed by Jinsona for wordpress and now its ready for your blogger blog!

The Monezine templates starts off with a thin strip before the blog title that hols the post and comments RSS icon and a search bar on the far right. Below that is space for the blog title as well as a big leaderboard advertisement on its right. Then we have two drop down menus that enable you to categorize your blog very well.

The speciality of monezine is that it enables you to monetize your blog, the featured content slider in this blog allows you to insert a leaderboard advertisement on each of these slides.

After that starts the main column, the best part about this template is that you do not need to put code for the readmore as its automatically done by the template. Under the headline we have the posted by author stamp and the date with complimenting icons.

Where the mini post on the home page ends there is a thin seperator line with the read more link with an icon on the right and a comment count on the left with a speech bubble icon. The sidebar is multicolumn, a single column that branches off into two, with a three column tab widget built into it along with ad boxes.

The beauty of this template flows to the footer as well with some beautiful icons for the headings for the About, Recent Comments and Recent Posts section.

ImpreZZ Blogger Skin

Here comes an impressive template from Productive Dreams called Imprezz that was ported to blogspot by Falcon Hive.

Well Gopal Raju is well know for his beautiful wordpress layouts and we are glad the Alvaris has converted it for us. This three column template may not have sliders and gliders like the Zinmag series but, its got outstanding design.

Theres a barely noticeable menu bar above the main column and two sidebars on the right hand side. The main column has a big post date icon on the left and ends with a nice strip of blue with the comments icon on the right.

The next column, the one in the middle is what gives life to this template, its widget header appears to wrap around the black column and makes it look somewhat like a modern building. The top of the column has an image that holds the blog title and can be replaced by yours.

The last column on the right hand side has a twitter follow me button as well as your latest twitter update for people to see. Go ahead and get Imprezzed!
