My Lost Template.....That is now back

I am so grouchy! I haven't the vaguest notion of what happened to my striped template from pyzam. I found some great templates (free even!) and I can't get them to work either. Of course, I have spent an inordinate amount of time trying to fix it. Sorry it is so boring looking now. Does anyone know if you need to extract the files when you download the template in the new xm format? I am not even sure that question makes sense. I am only good on a computer if everything works-I am not your go-to gal for troubleshooting. Sigh...I guess I will have to leave well enough alone for now. I am feeling like a bad mommy for being tied to the computer for so long! I know I will regret this tomorrow at work when I am missing my little ones...both immediate and extended-release guilt.


Thanks for all the kind comments! My template is back...turns out I had saved the original. Whatever, it was a serendipidous finding. BUT my blogroll is gone!!! I'm so sad...So now the work begins-I can't stand not sharing the page with my faves!


Sigh...ok now I have my blogroll back. And it's already time for bed with no interesting post to add. Maintenance sucks.

I haven't seen your blog earlier but it seems that you have lost the template by Pyzam. One reason may be that Pyzam itself destroyed that template or also the picture they were using in template is lost.

Also it's XML and not XM. If you remember that you have saved ur template on your computer then you can upload it as blogger provides us that option. Or if you want to change the look you can use any other template.

Above all, if you want the same template and want to add a picture in the background go to settings->layout->edit html, you will see a html in a text box. Search for background, there will be an occurance background:image and after that an image location. copy any location of any image, you want in ur blog.

if that all won't work send me ur blog's HTML.

Your blog still looks cute! Love the story about big brother watching after pretty girl. I bet you have your hands full with her walking. They are so cute at that age. Enjoy it! Have a good week!

Many many thanks to Akash!!! I had to laugh about the whole XM / XML thing...I should have known better since we have XM radio.


Becky, thanks for the compliment. So glad my blog isn't putting ppl to sleep (well, the template anyway ;)

More Wine Please...I love it! an excuse to watch more Rocky. That always makes me happy!

I know your pain! I changed my template just last week and even though I dowloaded/backed up my blog I still had issues. Then on top of it all Safari crashed and let's just say that was icing on the cake since I had all of these tabs open and was copying and pasting...OK, enough complaining! You get the idea. Good luck!!!
