Contemplating!!!

For last few weeks i sit in front of my computer and log onto blogger and select onto new post, start writing first few lines about something which I am thinking and then start pressing backspace till the page gets cleared, stare at it for a while and then close the browser.

Just listening to Pink Floyd's one of the biggest hit "comfortably numb" i feel i have become something like that. Nothing now makes me feel astonished nothing now makes me feel energised nothing now makes me feel seek out and get it. Its not the first time i am feeling it but it has happened in the past also. So i just go about my daily routine of going to work and do it and come back home and sleep over it. Not interested in talking to anyone not interested in meeting with anyone just want to lie down and stare at the stars or at fans at times.

Two weeks back my head went crazy...started paining like crazy and when i close my eyes not to feel about it it comes back with more vengeance. Decide to go home and go for a check up...i used to have this headache when i did not eat my dinner properly and it used to subside but this time it would not relent coming back stronger. Decided to go to the doctor and got my check up done and result showed High Blood Pressure and Hypertension....i was not surprised but now starting to get back to track...doing exercise and planning to reduce my weight to 80Kgs.

Now about the heading what i am contemplating i hell still dont know, my head is working at superspeed and wants to do lotsa things but then there are forces which i cannot fight with for making me do things.

Finally my post after a very very long time

PIMP your Blog!!!

As you are a regular in blogger.com you could see that you have only limited template options and common features in those.

There is always a need to PIMP up your blog so that it looks good and has a wow effects to it.

I shall partake some of my Minuscule Knowledge I know about blogging and to PIMP it up. I shall add only few things in this writeup.

Templates:

There are only 16 templates plus different colours of each template available in blogger.com, at times you feel that the colour combination would be better or the top image could be changed. Don’t worry there are many websites which take care of the limited templates in blogger. com and have an exhaustive list of their own.

Few websites such as :

  • http://www.eblogtemplates.com/

    • You would have to sign up into the website to download the templates. Has a good collection of wordpress and blogger templates. Also you get adsense and counter features in few of the templates. The blogs are submitted by users or from the creators of the websites. They also have a good collection of articles regarding blogs and other things on how to monetize your websites/blogs.

How to put up template on your Blog?

  • I shall give you one example, I had downloaded the template http://www.eblogtemplates.com/itheme-techno-2-col/

From http://www.eblogtemplates.com/

  • Create a login for the website and then download the template. You shall receive the template in .zip or .rar format. Extract the .xml in any folder of your PC. Follow the instruction given below

Installation Instructions:

  • Go to layout & select download full template. (save the template in your pc, if there is any issue you could revert back to the same)

  • Then browse to your downloaded template and upload the same. You could get some errors like image 1 and html issue; no worries just select Save Template.

  • PLEASE DO NOT PREVIEW YOUR BLOG. Go to Layout > Page Element

  • Edit “Top Menu” widget. Add at least one link, for example you can make a link to your blog homepage with “Home” anchor text

  • Edit “Archives” widget. Chose “Flat List” Style and “MM YY” Date Format style, for example “February 2008”

  • Edit “Recent Posts” widget. Change Feed URL to http://YOURBLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default

  • Edit “Recent Comments” widget. Change Feed URL to http://YOURBLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default

  • Go to Settings > Formatting, choose Timestamp style: “Wednesday, January 30, 2008″

  • Finish. Preview your blog to see the result.

You shall see all the colours and effects have changed in your blog…
