Windows Vista blogger template
WP Vista is a new professional Theme designed by ThemeBin. It has a dark background, two columns and a header with a picture reminding Windows Vista. I converted it from Wordpress to Blogger and name it Windows Vista blogger template 
When we talk about Windows Vista, we may think about Microsoft. And when we think about Microsoft, we must know the man behind - Bill Gates. Have you heard the news that Bill Gates retired on Friday 27 June 2008 ? He leaves his full-time executive role at Microsoft, the company he founded more than three decades ago, to focus on his philanthropic organization, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the world’s largest charity, funded in part by his vast fortune. Bill Gates will become a non-executive chairman and work part-time, joined Chief Executive Steve Ballmer on stage to deliver a short speech and field questions from employees. Yes, still work but not too much :). You can read the story at PCWorld and Reuters.
Now return to our brand-new blogger template You can take a look at this template via the screenshot below or see it in action via demo link

Best regards,
So do I need to redownload, and then copy picture files to my own photobucket? I had to change template because of the photobucket deleted messages all over my page! PLEASE HELP!
Yes, that’s it.
Please help me… My blog is take this template but information from Photobucket: “image or video has been moved or deleted”
Thank you…
Hi dedev, you should download it again. My photobucket bandwidth is going to be exceeded!
okay..I think I got it. I downloaded files, added them to my photobucket, now I can go into your code, and change all the Http links to point toward my photbucket account.
Thank you. Actually I do not want to bother you but if I don’t do that, our templates will be broken soon.
Thank you! I saw in your new template, you made it very easy for me to simply put in my
http://i40.photobucket.com/alb.....tusername/
and put it in place of “your link here”. You even kept the pic names in the code, so it should take a little bit, but once it is done. It’s done. Then if I even want to change it up, I can change the file.
Hugs to you! Have a great night!
When do I sign on my site with Firefox is thus:
and in Internet Explorer is thus (regular):
http://imagenems.blogspot.com/
Hahaha, very funny. It’s very interesting. Thanks for asking.
This problem happened because you used ( and ) characters for your header image. Remove them and it will be ok
Don’t understand “you used ( and ) characters for your header image”
What characters exactly should delete? please explain me.
PS. Sorry for my basic english..
Change this image link : http://vpgkng.blu.livefilestor...../header-bg(Elias).jpg
Did you see ( and ) characters in bold ? Delete them.
Regards,
I have to upload all the pic’s…
I will create another Photobucket account to store the next blogger templates.
Hi guyz, I really like this template, but I can’t figured out how to perfectly upload it. I’ve tried to follow all the instruction but it seems that only the XML file is uploaded but with no images upload.
In the extraction folder I found that there is an image folder that named ‘images - upload fist !!!’. Is this has somethin’ to do with this. Sorry maybe I’m too naive on this.
Hope anybody can hep me with this. Thanks in advance.
YOu need to upload all images in folder “images-upload first” to your hosting image such as http://photobucket.com , then replace all image links with yours.
That’s it.
sir why i can’t install this. it says we are unable to complete your request.
nevermind i have install it now! thanks for this great template!
I’m really tired of this *silly* error
Sir can i have to a scroll down navigation like when you click a one navigation button it will have a lot of menus like on
