6,Save template and upload it to Blogger .

How to use this template ?

To make a post ,first of all ,you need to create thumbnail for each of your images ,many free softwares available in internet for creating thumbnail and I think you can easily search for them ( I use Yet Another Thumbnail Creator ) .Upload original image and thumbnail to a host or image hosting service .
After that ,create a post as normal .Each post should contain one image and text for description . When you finish creating content for the post  ,click on edit HTML ,find <img src="........." /> tag of your image and change it to :
<img alt="link to original image" src="link to thumbnail" />
 So the structure for a post should be like this :
<img alt="link to original image" src="link to thumbnail" />
text for description
Original image should be at least 1024x768 px and size for thumbnail is fixed at 180x120 px

That's all ,and you can publish your post .
I hope you like this template . Feel free to leave me feedback via comments ^^ Thanks for supporting me.
