How to download and use blogskins

10/11/2011

Assalamuaikum and hi!
So today I will teach you on how to download and use classic template or also called as blogskins. You can get blogskins codes from Blogskins.com or from my blog (as I didn't upload my codes there).

1. Choose a design. 

As I said, you may get blogskin codes either from Blogskin.com or from my blogs or maybe from other blogger who provides free blogskins. If you are using blogskins, the road of downloading might be a little tricky because at first I didn't see the download button too!


2. Get the codes! 

You will face no problem if you are getting the codes from blogger as they always provide direct and obvious placement of the link to the codes. If you are using blogskins, the road of downloading might be a little tricky because at first I didn't see the download button too! Let's use this blogskin of mine as an example:

let's say this is the design that you have chosen. To get the codes, scroll down until you found this button at the right side of the site.
Click Blogger Main to download. You will get a text file, simply copy the content of that text file.


3. Apply codes to your blog

To have this blogskins to your blog. You need to revert your template to Classic Template first. Here is how to do it:
1. Go to Template > Scroll Down until you found "Revert to Classic Template" > Click that button and choose "Revert to Classicc Template"
2. You will automatically directed to a HTML page. Delete all the codes in the HTML box, and replace them with the codes you got earlier.

4. Preview your blog, edit, and save.

This process requires a lot of time and effort. You may edit your blogskin codes using http://htmledit.squarefree.com/ to save time.
