I've never yet found a blog template that I actually liked when I applied it, so I'm just hoping this one will somehow grow on me - and on you too - so that the comments will actually work again, and all sorts of other lovely usability issues will be resolved. I really think blogger should note that updating this often and forcing users to abandon their non-standard templates really is a drawback. The last time I had a template going I really liked, blogger puller some version of the same thing they've done now - 'upgrading,' which seems to result in an uglier blog and not much else.
at least it's not myspace (shudder).
