6,When finish editing template , you can upload file to Blogger .

7,In page Elements ,you can add or remove widgets as you want .

To use this template :


Like SimplexTube ,there are two display modes in this template : display as video post and display as a normal blog post .

To post in video display mode , your post need to follow this structure :

video-link-endofvid
[starttext]
text description goes here
[endtext]

then label your post with label "video" .

For example ,I want to create a video post with youtube video at this address : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5wfYPXAjl8 ,here is what I do :

Go to Dashboard - > Posting ->New Post
and enter post content like this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5wfYPXAjl8endofvid
[starttext]
Textdescription .....blah blah blah ...
[endtext]
add the label 'video' in Labels field .
 Click Publish Post . Ok ,we finish posting a new video to blog . You can see this post in homepage.

-Link from Vimeo has structure http://www.vimeo.com/video-id ,for example http://vimeo.com/18539129 ,it's what you see in the address bar of browser .To post this video to blogger ,you will make a post like this :
http://vimeo.com/18539129

[starttext]
Textdescription .....blah blah blah ...
[endtext]


-Link from Liveleak has structure http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=video-id ,for example http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=b7a_1294580726 ,it's what you see in the address bar of browser .To post this video to blogger ,you will make a post like this :

To post a normal article : go to Posting ->New Post and write your content as normal . But remember to add label 'blog' at Labels field . This label will mark the post a normal blog post and it will show your post in Blog Post style ( Not Video Post style ).

To show your post in slider at the top of homepage,add one more label 'feature' to the post .

That's all for this template .I hope you like it .
You can use this template for free ,but keep the credit please .
