Full instructions and download links are provided below.</p> <span id="fullpost"> <p align="center"><script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> </p> <h3>Features of this template</h3><p>A New Day is a wide two column template, providing ample room for posts and also provision for wider sidebar widgets.</p><p>The header section features an integrated "navigation" links list widget, so you can easily add and edit links to the main pages of your blog.</p><p>Other useful features include: <ul><li>Rounded corners for the sidebar widget headings</li> <li>Fonts and colors can be changed within the "Fonts and Colors" section in your Blogger dashboard.</li> <li>Author comment highlighting (with a different color heading for author's comments)</li> <li>Automatic "copyright" (according to blog title) in the lower footer section.</li> <li>Comment count below post titles</li> <li>Unique header image which spans the entire width of the page.</li></ul></p><h3>Using This Template</h3><p>I have tried to ensure this template is as user-friendly as possible! A New Day should work "right out of the box" once this is uploaded to your blog.</p><p>The only thing you may need to configure is the "Link List" widget in the header section, which you can access in the Layout>Page Elements section of your dashboard. In this widget, you can add links to the important pages of your blog (such as your "About" and "Contact" pages. Or if you prefer not to feature such links, you can simply delete this altogether!</p><h4>Fixed elements of this template</h4><p>The main background, and the background images for the main area of the blog are embedded in the template code. As such, the colors of these areas cannot be changed, unless you are willing to alter these images and upload these to your own image host.</p><p>However, I do plan to bring out a darker version of this template in the near future for those of you who would prefer a darker color scheme for your blogs ;)</p><p>Other than this, all other elements of this template may be changed, including all fonts, font colors and the border colors (which will also alter the color of the sidebar widget borders).</p><p>You can change these elements dynamically from within the Fonts and Colors section of your Blogger dashboard.</p><h3>Download Options for this template</h3><p>There are two options for downloading this template: the XML template (which should be uploaded to your Blogger dashboard) and the HTML Code (a text based file which you should copy and paste).</p><p>Here are links to each download version, along with full instructions for your to upload this to your blog.</p><h4 style="text-decoration: underline;">XML Template Download</h4><p>The following is the XML version of the "A New Day" Blogger template.
