Papelys y Color


Blog Amuki is one of the most astounding Blogger based designs I have ever seen! I was awestruck to discover this hugely talented designer has released some Blogger templates for free!

Magazeen


Designed by WeFunction for Smashing Magazine, this Blogger template conversion from Zona Cerebral is simply awesome! Don't be deceived by the apparent simplicity of the layout: once you see this template in action you'll understand why I like it so much.

Beneath the header section is an area of thumbnails which link to recent posts. When you hover over a thumbnail, the title of the post it links to will fade in (and out) above the thumbnails. The footer too is well-styled, and while this template will require personalization for your particular blog, I promise the results will be well worth the effort!

Wooden Fence


Here's another stunning conversion from Alvaris Falcon, converted from the Wordpress theme by TemplateLite.

This three column theme is beautifully designed with image-heavy backgrounds in the style of a sunny garden.

Magazine and Gallery Styles

In recent times, magazine and gallery style themes have become very popular.

Magazine-style themes are ideal for niche blogs which are regularly updated, and where the showcase of a particular category assists readers in navigation.

Gallery-style templates are perfect for photo-bloggers, artists and designers to showcase their works as in portfolio fashion.

All of the following templates make excellent use of functions and CSS styles to ensure magazine and gallery style themes showcase the potential of Blogger as a powerful publishing tool.

Unusual Layouts and Styles

I love to see new design styles where the author has chosen to break out of conventional layout schemes. We tend to consider a blog layout as having at least one sidebar to the left, right or either side of blog content; that the header section should span the width of the blog, and other assumed layout options.

This set of themes defy convention: some are single column themes (ideal for showcasing photos!) while others do not appear like blogs at all!

Mainstream


Based on the WooThemes template, this Blogger conversion includes tabbed navigation buttons, social media links and stylish sidebar headings.

This has been bloggerized by WP Blogger Themes and is well worth a look!
