Express yourself with the Blogger Template Designer
March 11, 2010
In Blogger’s
more than 10 years
, we’ve learned that blogging is a powerful way for people to express themselves. More than 350,000 words are written on Blogger every minute of every day and over the years we’ve added
a bunch of features
to ensure that writing those words is as easy, fun and rewarding as possible. Today, we’re happy to announce the launch of the
Blogger Template Designer
on
Blogger in Draft
, our experimental playground where you can try out the latest features Blogger has to offer. Instead of creating a lot of new templates that will grow stale over time, we decided to go beyond static templates and reinvent the whole process of designing your blog, making it even easier to express yourself online.
The Blogger Template Designer is our big first step in improving not just our template designs, but all the ways that you can customize the look and layout of your blog. If you try out the Blogger Template Designer, you’ll find:
Fifteen new professional templates to start from (and more on their way)
Custom blog layouts with one, two and three columns
Hundreds of free professional background images from
iStockphoto
, the leading microstock image marketplace
Customizable colors, fonts and more
Check out this video for a peek at what you can do with the Blogger Template Designer:

Blogger in draft blog
. Give the Blogger Template Designer a
test drive
, and then
let us know
what you think!
