A free and customizable full width blogger template

Here my first design of a full width blogger template. The background that shows up on the sides of the template is blue and the content area is white. The layout of the blogspot theme has the articles on the left and the space for widgets on the right side.

Also most of the text and the links are dark blue or black as you can see in the screenshot. The picture in the header doesn't come with the template, but you are able to upload your own picture and display the blog title and a description in the header area as displayed further below.

Terms of Use

Using this blogspot theme is free of charge. Anybody can use or change the template as long as the copyright link stays in the footer of the template.
