Yeah finally the extremely beautiful blogger template is here. After 2 days babysitting my baby, and struggling with blogger HTML/XML codes, now this Lemon Twist “Awesome” Blogger Template is available to download.
You can download this template through the download link down there, but if you need some demo first, you can check the Lemon Template Demo Blog here (leave your comment there), or just view the snapshot below.
Lemon Twist Blogger Template

Ah I don’t even have any word to describe how beautiful this template is. All i can say is just “PERFECT!”
A great salute and credit to Chris Murphy, the Wordpress Theme Creator. He made it so well. Chris make this wordpress theme based on his own site. He is using this same wordpress theme too actually.
Another wordpress theme designer who release his own site design as a free to download wordpress theme is my friend DezinerFolio.com. They also share their site theme for free. And as you can see, the web 2.0 template is just so beautiful.
I would say that if you are looking for a free wordpress theme or blogger template, then try to find a designer who shares his/her own site template for free first.
Because they use the template on their own site, they will of course give their really best to make it better. They will optimize it as maximum as they can.
And for now, we have already 2 people here on jackbook.com
OK back to this Lemon Twist Blogger Template, to install this template, you have to upload the javascripts file to your own Googlepages, or any file hosting you got.
Please follow instructions below to install this template.
- Backup your current template first
- Backup all the widgets (optional)
- This template on default needs at least 4 HTML/Javascript widgets.
So if your current template has least then 4 HTML / Javascript widgets, go create the rest widgets before uploading the xml file. You can get all the sample of the widget codes included inside the ZIP file - Upload the template via the Blogger Template Uploader on your dashboard
- Done
What should do after Installing this template: (UPDATED!)
- Change your blog setting to show only 1 post on the homepage.
1. Go to your blog setting page
2. Go to Formatting tab
3. Change the value of the first field with 1
4. go to the next step below - Set your post time stamp / date format with the same format as the date format on the demo blog.
- Set your feed URL.
1. Go to your HTML Editor
2. Find this code <a href=’#Your-Feed-URL-Here’>RSS 2.0</a>
3. Change the URL with your own Feed URL
4. save the template. done - Install your own FavIcon. (Optional)
Give your blog some unique identity
This below is new added - Look at the comment list. there is a difference between the author comment and the readers comment. To set that please follow the instructions below.
1. Go to your blogger template editor, and find this code below
<b:if cond=’data:comment.author == “JackBook.Com“‘>
See the bolded JackBook.Com? Change that with your Blogger Name
2. Find this code below
<img alt=’Gravatar’ class=’gravatar’ src=’http://img125.imageshack.us/img125/6801/authorgravataryu9.jpg‘/>
yes, change the bolded one with your 64×64px image.
3. Find this code below
<img alt=’Gravatar’ class=’gravatar’ src=’http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/5111/authorgravatarsmallid4.jpg‘/>
change the bolded with your 32×32px image.
4. Find this code below
background: url(”http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/6345/authornb8.jpg“) no-repeat left;
change the bolded with your 75×75px image
Done.
Some more new added features:
- Built in Swap Blogger Title Hack
- The images needed by this template are all hosted on ImagesHack.us
I host all the images onto my ImagesHack.Us so it should has a larger bandwith limit there. I still recommend you host all the images to your own googlepages, or ImagesHack or any other free images hosting out there but it’s optional anyway.
JackBook.Com has so many readers, and so many people using my templates. Thousands copies of my templates being downloaded every week. My googlepages account exceed the bandwith limit everyday, even now I use ImagesHack to host the images, but considering that JackBook.Com Templates have so many users there is still a possibility that my ImagesHack Account exceed the bandwith limit too. So it’s still recommended for you to host all the images to your own images hosting. But again, it’s optional. You can leave it as is if you want to. - Featured Post on the Homepage Blog.
Not like the other templates, this template has a featured post section on the homepage. Your last post will be the featured one. so the featured post is automatic. you don’t have to set it manually. - Beautiful Comment list, with a List of Commentator on a separate panel. Just take a look on the demo here and tell me that you don’t love it
- Using JQuery provided by Google.
Because the Javascript file hosted on Google Server and used by many other website too, It should load faster then if you host it on your own file hosting.
OK I guess that’s all. I will add more update later if there is something to add.
You can download the template via the link below.
Downloaded a total of 1254 times
or download the wordpress theme here.
Now let me know how do you think about this template? Leave your feedback on the comment form below. thanks
Update:
Currently if you want to change the flicker images on the bottom footer, you have to do it manually since it is not widgetized yet. I don’t know how to get the flicker javascript codes, since on the wordpress theme it uses a php script to generate that images.
It would be great if any of you knows how to get the flicker codes :), just tell me on the comment. thanks
new added: OK here is a tip from Amanda Fazani, a good friend from Blogger Buster
If you still need the JavaScript for Flickr photostreams, you can get the code from here: http://www.flickr.com/badge.gne
You’ll need to log in with a Yahoo account to access this, and may also need to tweak the code generated for your needs. I have used this in Blogger before now, and it’s really useful once you get the hang of using it.
Thanks Amanda.

Update #2:
Oops there are some points you have to do after installing this template that I forgot to mention on the post. Now I have update it, please read the instruction again.
This post is long enough to make me lost my train of thought
Thanks guys.
Update #3:
How to change the top image on the header? The FarFromFearless Image?
- Go to your template
- Find this line “http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/8227/logoom3.png“
- Change that image with your own 376×91px image
- It is recommended that you save that image and modify it with your own image editor.
- thanks
Can’t Add New Page Elements / Widgets ?
Some readers said that they can’t add any new page elements, if only they mentioned what’s the error message too.
Well because you guys didn’t give me the error message, then I can only predict about what happened. I guess you guys didn’t follow my instruction about that this template require at least 4 HTML / Javascript widgets.
Make sure that you have at least 4 HTML Widgets. To fix this problem, I guess you just easily re-upload this new template.
I have met this problem once before, and I can fixed it by uploading the XML file twice. Hope it works. Thanks
Update #4:
How to add the Horizontal Menu on the Top Header?
OK, because there are already 2 or more friends who asked this question, here is the answer.
Actually I have mentioned about this on the post above.
After you download the template, you will see a text file named: Widget_Content.txt included in the zip file.
just open it, and you will see the content of that widget.
<ul>
<li>
<a href="http://www.google.com" title="Home">home</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="http://www.yahoo.com/" title="About">About</a>

wow nice theme
actually is more than nice
but I think the size of entry font is to big jack, maybe 75 or 85% is enough. 
How can we change your pic?
And how can I remove “farfromfearless” logo?
in your template find’Author Block, and below this find this URL http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/6345/authornb8.jpg
REPLACE THAT WITH YOUR IMAGE 0F 75×75 size
i did that … but it did not work with me
i got this message
” More than one widget was found with id: HTML3. Widget IDs should be unique.”

Hello Jacky,
That is really a beautiful template!! I’m so glad to see you have been able to convert this for Blogger users
If you still need the JavaScript for Flickr photostreams, you can get the code from here: http://www.flickr.com/badge.gne
You’ll need to log in with a Yahoo account to access this, and may also need to tweak the code generated for your needs. I have used this in Blogger before now, and it’s really useful once you get the hang of using it.
Best wishes and kudos for your excellent contributions to the Blogger community
Jack really had a hard time on this one
didn’t you Jack? but he did it so. Thanks!!
I’ve tried to add the flickr script on your template, but keep getting the count variable must be close with “;”
I’ve checked on Amanda with her template http://www.bloggerbuster.com/2008/02/my-valentine-new-blogger-template.html that allows flickr to fit in, but the problem is on your template there are no footer html widget. And I can’t find the HTML1 to HTML4 widget on the page elements even though it was coded there. Please help me

HELP US JACK PLEASEEEEEEEE
hi HakimTea and Effendina,
can you tell me what the error message was? thanks
Thanks before Jack…
This is the problem “Error When Move The Additional Element”
I posted to my googlepages so become easy to me, cause here (post comment) the place is to limited, also I don’t want to disturb your visitor
sorry maybe I wrong to put html above, so here it is -> http://hakimtea.googlepages.com/lemonerroraddnewelement
ah i c.
to edit those elements, you can move those covered widgets to another place first.
try to drag the covered widgets and drop it to the top or left place.
after editing the widget content, you can put it back to the sidebar.
sorry, hope you understand. thanks
Oke jack I did it, thanks
But the way is to complicated
after add new element like you say to move new element must i should go to edit html not in layout. Anyway thanks again jack 
ok thank you too Hakimtea
Hi Just the looks and FEEL I was looking for. WOW. great stuff.

The layout and the color is wonderful. But when it comes to play with GA, it’s more than a disaster. No room for ads ever…
Hi guys and Jack, to add new element, you can go to ‘edit html’, then copy and paste the widget code to have a new widget (that means you gotta work quite well with html). For the recent comment, please help me. :D. My site is at http://toteachenglish.blogspot.com, please help.
Yeah.. I got an error. Please tell me how to fix this. I really like the template and it’s still working on your blog demo.
Jack, thanks for the awesome layout and very precise instructions.
I wish u the best in future endeavor.
Ted.
Jack, i’ve found that there is a part on top of my blog that showed your face and somekind of a text box.
Wonder if i can ever put text in it and change it to my face instead?
