The Design is totally different, and I like it
The Aurora on the header is wonderful, RSS button is special, comment button is creative and JavaScript-based tabber is cool!

this is the best blogger template i have seen…i need it…pls help
Hi Macyh!
Thanks for your comments!
I can’t understand your words, can you explain more about your creative idea?
Hi msplash9!
Thanks for your praises and questions! You have a nice gaming blog and Prince of Persia is my favorite too. :D
For your problems, I have checked the image upload and alignment feature in own demo blog and also refer to btemplates’ demo blog,
http://brownline-btemplates.blogspot.com/
and it looks nice at all.
I have checked your blog and find all the possibilities as I can to solve the problems, but I’m sorry to tell you that your previous posting alignment does not match with this template.
You can see the big texts overlap with your content. This is generally because the title is too long, which does not fit the length available in this template.
The overflowing large image is also due to the previous image alignment, which does not fit to the width available in this template.
I’m really thankful for your praises and comments, please forgive us for not able to solve your problems, hope this helps and enjoy blogging!
ohhh…nooo..
but its ok mate….thanx for your kind reply…..and one more thing this template is a master piece..absolutely wonderful
Hi Alvaris
What i want is to tell me how can i change the layout direction from left to right so i can use it in my Arabic blog, as you may know that arabic language is fron right to left.
I hope i make my self clear and waiting your reply
Thanks Alvaris
Hi msplash9!
Thanks for your kind words and praises, I convert this theme is also because I thought someone would love it very much. :)
As our new converted template is coming more and more, stay on the tune and you might find your new love again! :D
Enjoy blogging ya!
Hi Macyh!
Yeah I finally got your mean, as I have good friend who’s also studying the Arabic language. ;)
Unfortunately that every layout is designed to be fixed exactly like its look, so unless you change the entire design, you can’t change the layout direction.
Hope this helps and enjoy blogging!
Hi Alvaris
There is no wau to align the post title and the side bar widgets direction from left to right? Cause i saw many blogger templates originaly in english ported to work with arabic language without redesign it but i don’t know how.
Can you please look into it.
Regards.
Hi Macyh!
Wow that’s a cool idea!
Can you please send me an example blog that I can observe how to achieve it?
I would also seek the idea from Blogger Help Group and test myself to make it happen, as this really can help Arabic language blog.
Thanks for your suggestion, anyway. ;)
Yes absolutely, i will be glad to do it
Here is some examples:
http://lamlih.adnane.googlepages.com/arab-green.xml
http://akbach.googlepages.com/solipsus-arab.xml
http://lamlih.adnane.googlepages.com/arab-dfire.xml
And here is a preview links
http://arab-green.blogspot.com/
http://arab-dfire.blogspot.com/
Thanks Alvaris for tring to help me with this matter and can’t wait to get one of your templates to work on my arabic blog. Please keep as posted about what you find.
Regards.
Hi Macyh!
Thanks for your words and suggestions!
I have got the way now, it actually needs to add ‘text-align=right’ tag in some part of the template.
You can give me one template and I would demo and explain to you. ;)
Hope this helps and happy blogging ya!
Can you please do it on these two templates?

Thanks a lot Alvaris
Hi Macyh!
Thanks for your suggestion!
I would take Toughpress template for the Arabic language adaptation.
Please leave your email for the demo and explanation, thank you. :)

Waiting your email.

Hi, I just grabbed your template.
But can I ask how will the date show?
And the labels are shown twice, above post and below.
Here’s my blog:
http://247diary.blogspot.com/
Btw, brown is my favorite color.
This is the first template I liked most.
Thanks for sharing it with us.
Hi fat!
Thanks for your words and praises! It really encouraged me a lot. :)
You can actually show the date below every post title.
Please access into ‘Settings’, and under the ‘Formatting’ tab, change the ‘Timestamp Format’ to something like ‘Wednesday, December 20, 2008′, ‘Save Settings’ and you can see the date showing on the below of every post title.
For the label, you can tell me which one do you want to remove and leave your email here so I can send a tutorial for you, thanks!
Hope this helps and enjoy blogging ya!
Hi Alvaris, it’s so nice of you to reply on my request. Thanks, thanks, :)
Yeah, about the label, I want to keep it below my post. Hope you can help me with that. Also, if you have viewed my blog, the “Links to this post” is located at the left corner of each post with something in it (looks like they overlapped), couldn’t it be placed in the same line with the category? Sorry if you find me like demanding. Of course I’m not, hehe.. It’s fine and would be very glad if you’ll help me with my label problem only.
Ooops, my email:
clickreferrals[at]gmail[dot]com
Looking forward to your email.
Cheers,
Hi Alvaris, how are you?
I just want to ask you if you send me any files via email cause i didn’t recived anything.
Just reminding , no rush :)
Regards.
Hi Macyh!
Sorry that I haven’t completed your request in these days.
Thanks for your understanding, I have so many awesome projects running on these days, just to keep every Blogger enjoys more in blogging! :)
Hi fat,
Thanks for your request!
I would email you the tutorial in these days, together with the solution of ‘Links to the Post’. ;)
It’s okay my dear. It’s always nice to hear my precious reader’s need and help to achieve it! :D
Hi Alvaris,
Thanks for your help.
Have a nice day!
cheers,
Can’t wait to see those porjects.
I’ve found this template on a number of sites and I can’t get any of them to upload. I keep getting this error code
bX-xuyvo5
HELP!!!
I keep getting this error when I try to upload to blogger
bX-yh6u4n
HELP!!!
Hi Life, love and why!
I have just visited your blog and seems everything goes well. :)
I checked in http://validator.w3.org/ Markup Validation Service.
the markup of this template is No valid.
Screenshot of Result: 136 Errors, 98 warning(s)
Validation Output: 136 Errors
Why do you write “Validation: XHTML/ CSS ” in the post, if the code is non valid?
It’s a lie.
Hi mlc!
Thanks for your comment, nice to meet you! :)
It’s a sweet memory when I started this blog without any XHTML/ CSS knowledge, but thanks for your report, it should be corrected for all template now.
I’m sorry to mislead you, have a nice day anyway. ;)
Again, thanks for your kind heart.
Hi Alvaris,
I like your template very much so I’m changing my old template to yours. However, I have something need to fix, can you help me?
-I’d like to change color for the date on every post but I can’t find out where.
-Also, like Fat said: “the “Links to this post” is located at the left corner of each post with something in it (looks like they overlapped), couldn’t it be placed in the same line with the category”
Here’s my blog
http://lindahoang2009.blogspot.com
Hope you can help me with this.
Thanks a lot,
Linda
hi there, i would like to use this template but when i preview it, the post title font is really big! is there any way to resize it? thanks in advance
Hi It gives me error when i tried to upload the theme….please help
Hi Lindahoang,
Thanks for using our template! We are sure to help you fixing the template.
Yes, you have to create extra CSS to change the date color. You can create code like “.timestamp {}” in head section and apply the “div class=’timestamp’” on the code that contains timestamp in the body section.
We have rearranged the ‘link to the post’ part in the newest version, you can upload the newest version to solve the problem.
Hope this helps, thanks for your visit and enjoy blogging!
Hi That Realness Team,
Thanks for your preview, you can actually change the post title font by create “.entry { font-size:12px}” in the head section, or change the 12px to your preferred font-size.
Hope this helps and enjoy customizing!
Hi Dxna,
Thanks for your report! It’s common that custom Blogger template could get error, you can clear the internet browser’s cache and try to upload again until success. ;)
thanks for the tip. my blog is looking much better now but i have a couple of requests if poss. is there a way showing the author name on each post? i.e. “Posted by XXXXX”
also, is there a way of changing the date format and/or moving it to the bottom where “Category” is?
one more thing please… is there a way of getting rid of the “Posted In” bit at the top of the post? thought it would be best to get rid of it as i have a “Category” bit at the bottom which is more or less the same thing.
Thanks again for your help and this superb template!
http://www.thatrealness.blogspot.com
hey zul, how do you make your labels widget look like the one on your page please? mine is a basic one that just goes straight down. i want to make mine look funky like yours, please help bro. thanks in advance
Hey TR Admin,
I am using Label Cloud, you can find the step-by-step Setup & Configuration at below link:
http://phy3blog.googlepages.com/Beta-Blogger-Label-Cloud.html
All the best bro! :)
Hi,
Does anyone can advise on how about to widen the post column width for this theme?
hey zul, tried that link but when i imput it, it doesn’t display anything, just the title. i tried an edited version but that only displayed it as a line list, not a cloud. any ideas?
steve
http://thatrealness.blogspot.com/
i thought it was the template but it can’t be if your site can display the cloud so im a bit confused, lemme know where exactly you pasted the code
Hi Alvaris,
Please help me again! After I upload new version V101 to fix the problem with “link to this post”, I don’t know what did I do something wrong that all the border around every post disappeared even the cube containing comments.
Can you please help me to fix it?
Here’s my new url:
http://lindahoang09.blogspot.com/
-The date above every post also has large size. I’d like to reduce it but I don’t know where to find out.
-And end of each post there’s a Reaction to rate site but the color is black, it’s hard to see so I’d like to change that color too.
Thank you very much for your time.
Lindahoang
Is there any way to add the Tabber to another layout??
Hi,
At first time, many thanks for this good template. I desire to use in muy new blog but I have a problem.
I have the same problem that you can see on this blog
http://thatrealness.blogspot.com/
Between post and post, in the right corner apear two simbols (also using Mozilla, apear as interrogant).
Please, give me any solution if is is possible. Many thanks.
Regards. Fco.
My email: fcoval2007@gmail.com
Beautiful blog, Alvaris. I notice that when I try to set up the widgets that there is no way to have ‘recent posts’ or ‘recent comments’. On your demo, you have them on the tabs. How do you put them there?
Am I missing something?
Thanks for your help,
Hrafnkell
Hi Hrafnkell,
Thanks for your request, nice to see you again! :D
You can add Feed Gadget inside the tabber.
For the recent posts, its feeds address is:
YOUR-BLOG-ADDRESS/feeds/posts/default
As for the recent comments, its feeds address is:
YOUR-BLOG-ADDRESS/feeds/comments/default
You can also add others like Google Feedburner’s feed into the Feed gadget to show the recent post.
Hope this helps, enjoy with Brownline ya!

Nice to meet you, thanks for your words!
The sidebar banner section has to be widgetized to put in the Adsense code. As for the horizontal 728×90 ad banner in the bottom, you need to use the CSS code to create a column to put in the ads.
I can help you to widgetize the sidebar banner section, simply leave your email here so I can send you the tutorial in scheduled time.
Hope this helps, enjoy customizing ya!

Hi Anonymous,
Nice to meet you!
It’s possible to add the tabber in another layout, you just need to move the body code to the corresponding layout, and change CSS code to fit the layout part.
Hope this helps!
Hi Foo,
Nice to meet you, we appreciate your thanks!
You can probably download the latest version (1.01) shown in this post and upload it to solve the issue completely.
Hope this helps, see you!

Congrats from Greece.
Hello Falcon!
love this template. The only question I have is: on the 125×125 Ads, how do i code a link to the image that I have there? I got the images on, no problem. I just can’t link them to where i want them to go.
check it: http://hyborianchronicles.blogspot.com/
thanks!
Love the template, but have two questions: 1) Some of my titles run long, and the line spacing for the title is about 40pt. How do you change it so that if the title runs long, then the rest of the title doesn’t get pushed down so far that it interferes with the posting content? 2) I have two questions marks appearing at the bottom of every post. Any idea what those are about? Check out http://www.patentarcade.com to see these issues.
Thanks!
Alvares Falcon Hi I’m using Google’s translator send this message, because I do not know speak English, I wonder if I have to change the columns in place because I have tried a variety of ways and could not, then the first two photos is like the template is currently the second is how I would like is, if you have the kindness to help me I will be grateful, thanks …

Hi, thank you so much for this template, I really like it, it’s pretty elegant. I’m still working on the Ads sidebar, but it’ll get done soon,
I have already thanked Good Design Web, you did a lot of work too. so thank you.
Nice to meet you, thanks for your kind comment! It’s really encouraging me a lot, I believe Good Design Web would appreciate your thanks as well! :D
Thanks again for your love, enjoy customizing and blogging!
thanx for the template..
it’s so beautiful dude..
^-^
Sure, thanks for your warm comment! :D
Nice template thanks. I am trialling it at the moment on my blog. Unfortunately the sidebar is dropping down in IE6. Also the labels at the bottom of the post are not quite aligned within the frame. Please take a look. Any ideas how to fix these issues please?
Your blog is deleted…..
the following characters “**” are showing up between my blog posts. I cannot find a reference to them in the template.
1. How do I get rid of these characters, which do not seem to be on your template?
2. How do I put items between the blog posts (ie. adverts)
I thank you in advance for any help you may provide me.
Thanks for your kind report!
You can get rid of “**” by access into blog’s ‘Settings’ and under the ‘Formatting’ tab, please change the ‘Show Link Fields’ to ‘No’, ‘Save’ to achieve the normal blog view.
Hope this helps, enjoy blogging with Brownline! ;)
I would like to remove the search box and replace it with an opt in box. How would I go about doing this?
[...] Installation and settings [...]
A really nice template. I like it.
Thanks for this info sharing..
Good luck & always success.. :)

Hi, I’m Kostantinos again.
I already thanked you for the template, i’m using this 7 months now.
My question is if i can remove the three ads and place a slider instead.
Will the author be offended?
If i can do that, how? Simply remove the code for placing the pics?
Thanks.
Wow, thanks for using our Blogger templates for such a long time, it’s really encouraging to see you, our faithful user to comment in this site!
Sure, you can edit the template as you will, just be noted that you can’t remove the template’s footer link.
Yes, please replace the corresponding ad codes with your slider code in ‘Layout’ > ‘Edit HTML’ mode, all the best! :D
Thanks for such an elegant design
i have two questions.
1-how can i have the title to be centered instead of being on the left?
2- how can i add at the bottom of each post “add comment” when you click on it the pop up comment window will come up.
for now you have to click on the number.
thanks
You Can center the title by the following method.
In The CSS Section of the template search for the phrase or related words:
.blog-title
————–
————-
————–
————–
text-align: center;
Note: the ‘—–’ represent the properties of the title.
Just add the last line i mentioned below the dashes.
Be careful while editing.
hi,
how to i get rid of the “posted in” note and the category at the button?
thank you
That requires lot of coding to be done. So it is Difficult to help you with that.
Thank you for the template , I did some change.
For me the problem is the title and the space for the category if I need a long title or many category , I can t beacouse the space is to short and the words go out of template .
Somebody can help me please ?
Sorry for my bad english !
Since you have made quite many changes we do not know which part of the code have u changed.
Unfortunately, we can not help in this matter.
Many Thanks , I waiting for Your solution -)))
Hi…great blog by the way…hope to have someone look like this one day
Very new to blogging and wordpress so I am hoping you can help me out as I am having a few issues with this template(which looks amazing I think)
1. The caption under the picture…how do I change the background or the color of the writing. It shows up as white on white so cannot be seen. I think I would rather change the background but do not know how to
2. How do I change the images and where they link to in the three Ad boxes
3. How do I get the tag cloud to work. I posted one sample article and assigned tags to it but it does not show up.
I am sure I will have even more questions along the way. Glad to have found a site like yours. Looking forward to contributing more in the future. Thanks in advance for your help.
