<!-- Top Commentators Cloud Start
(c) 2010 Blogger Sentral. Original code by http://www.bloggersentral.com/. Please do not remove this credit and the “Get this commentators widget” link at the bottom of the code.-->
<div style="text-align:justify;line-height:1.2;">

• Replace 20 with how many top commentators you want to appear in the cloud. 
• In alphabet Enter alphabet if you want to arrange the names alphabetically. Enter frequency if you want to arrange them by frequency (with the most frequent commentators on top). 
• cCloud Comment count (in bracket) is displayed by default. To remove it, just delete this line of code.

Why Choose Disqus ?

From small blogs to massive websites, Disqus is the easiest way to build active communities. It's free to use and works with virtually any type of website.

Disqus comment box is one of the most used comment box around the web which makes commenting really easy. It's totally free and if you have a large fan base or big number of visitors then you can also earn some revenue with it , we will discus that in another post.

Disqus gives your visitors to log in and comment via all major social networks including Facebook and Twitter which makes it easy to sign in. If you're a big publisher then you can also add your site's log in option to disqus.

With Disqus your visitors can also attache images with their comment and it's easy for site owner to moderate spam comment.

Disqus also gives you option to reply comments and stay connected with your commenters.

Installing :

Well it was easy , make sure your blogger comment box isn't disabled otherwise it won't work. After installing you can customize settings of your comment box and disqus will notify you when a user comments your site/blog.

Installation :

• Go To Blogger > Template > Edit HTML > Search for </head> :

• Just above  </head>  paste following script :

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://widcraft.googlecode.com/svn/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
var d=300;
$('#navigation a').each(function(){
$(this).stop().animate({
'marginTop':'-80px'
},d+=150);
});
$('#navigation > li').hover(
function () {
$('a',$(this)).stop().animate({
'marginTop':'-2px'
},200);
},
function () {
$('a',$(this)).stop().animate({
'marginTop':'-80px'
},200);
}
);
});
</script>

Converting Your Blogger Template Into Blank Template

Blogger templates are codded using the *XHTML 1.0 Strict Document Type*. It was developed by world wide web consortium on 26 January 2000. Unlike PHP or ASP.net the rules of XML are strict and unforgiving. A slight mistake in code results in terrifying error messages that you often see while editing your blog template.

So here we're going to show you how to convert your blogger template into a blank template for all your HTML related work or any project you're going to do. All credits of this post goes to MBT.

Installing Template :

• Go To Blogger > Template > Edit HTML > Replace full template code with following code :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html b:version='2' class='v2' expr:dir='data:blog.languageDirection' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml' xmlns:b='http://www.google.com/2005/gml/b' xmlns:data='http://www.google.com/2005/gml/data' xmlns:expr='http://www.google.com/2005/gml/expr'>
  <head>
    <meta content='IE=EmulateIE7' http-equiv='X-UA-Compatible'/>
    <b:if cond='data:blog.isMobile'>
      <meta content='width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0' name='viewport'/>
    <b:else/>
      <meta content='width=1100' name='viewport'/>
    </b:if>
    <b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>
    <title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
   <b:skin><![CDATA[/*
-----------------------------------------------
////////////////////////STATIC HTML THEME////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
----------------------------------------------- */
#navbar-iframe {   height:0px;   visibility:hidden;   display:none   }
body {
  font: $(body.font);
  color: $(body.text.color);
  background: $(body.background);
  padding: 0 $(content.shadow.spread) $(content.shadow.spread) $(content.shadow.spread);
  $(body.background.override)  margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}
]]></b:skin>
 
  </head>
  <body>
  <b:section class='navbar' id='navbar' maxwidgets='1' showaddelement='no'>
<b:widget id='Navbar1' locked='true' title='Navbar' type='Navbar'/>
</b:section>
<div style='margin-top:400px; '>

</div>
  </body>
</html>

• Click On Save.

• Click save and when prompted about the following error:

Warning: Your new template does not include the following widgets:
BlogArchive1 Profile1 Attribution1 Header1 Blog1

• Simply click on Delete widgets and you are all done!

Editing This Template :

• While creating widgets, you will add the JavaScript just below <head> or above </head>
• You will add the CSS code inside the two yellow highlighted sections
• And you will add the widget data or HTML code inside the two green body tags

Adding A Widget :

Now to give you an idea of how easily a blogger template could be designed from scratch simply add the following code just above </body> to make the Post widget function on your Static HTML Theme.

<b:section class='main' id='main' showaddelement='yes'>
<b:widget id='Blog1' locked='true' title='Blog Posts' type='Blog'/>
</b:section>

Save your template and then visit the layout page again. You will be able to see the Post widget and you can now easily edit its formatting options. Go and create a new post and visit your blog to see it working just fine. Congratulations! you have created one of your first blogger widgets. Play this way with some exciting new widgets and find out how creative you could go.
