Arthemia magazine blogger template
Arthemia is a free professional magazine style theme designed by Michael Jubel and was converted to Blogger Template by me. Even though Arthemia blogger template doesn’t have middle category bar because of the limit of Blogspot (and/or the limit of my skill), it is still a high quality must-have theme.

Install Arthemia magazine blogger template
Step 1.Change Blog’s logo
Here is the logo link, you should change it to yours
http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll96/themelib/arthemia/logo.png
The size of logo should be about 180×40 pixels
Step 2. Set up the Drop down menu
Press Ctrl+F to find these lines
<ul class='left clearfloat' id='page-bar'>
<li><a expr:href='data:blog.homepageUrl'>Home</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Menu1</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Menu2</a></li>
<li><a href='#'>Menu3</a></li>
<li><a href='http://themelib.com'>Theme Lib</a>
<ul class='children'>
<li class='cat-item'><a href='http://themelib.com/about'>About me</a></li>
<li class='cat-item'><a href='http://themelib.com/about'>Contact me</a></li>
<li class='cat-item'><a href='http://themelib.com'>Visit my blog</a></li>
</ul></li>
</ul>
As you can see from the code in bold above, we can create child items (About me, Contact me, Visit my blog) for an item (Theme Lib). You can duplicate these code to create more child items for others.
Note: this drop down menu doesn’t work on Internet Explorer
Step 3. 468×60 banner ad
The code for 468×60 banner ad is below <div class=’banner-ad’>. If you’ve got ads to place in here, then just replace the code. If you don’t have ads to use, you can leave my default ads (yeah, I really appreciate that 
).

One other question…

Post date not appear in my blog with this template. What was wrong?
Another nice template i love this one it is really nice
i m facing problem with this template when i open it in internet explorer….. please help me
you can check the problem see my blog in internet explorer
I dont see any problem with your template, Except you have not configured the header properly. Try configuring with proper size image or by increasing or deceasing the overall size of the header in accordance with the image you are willing to use.
How to remove the bar at the top which is provided for 460*80 ad
Delete that adsense code for the ad from the template.
This is really nice and useful template. Thanks for it.
Nice template. I added labels with the codes you provided but how do i color the labels?
Filed under
,
Michael had answered how to do that before. You can check out the archive comments or use these codes to get the color in the style section.
color:#7DC50A;
color:#FF7800;
color:#12B5E8;
Hope that works….
I think there is a problem with the post date. i tried but could not see post date.

I am not sure you understood or maybe I am the person that don’t undetstand but how exactly do i put the color code to color only label that is above post next to date and comment. Check my page and you will see: Filed under “label”
I want to color “label” but how can I?
Try to make different class of CSS part for date and label issue.
I am very confused. I don’t know whereto begin, I only know I want to color label with #blue. There must be a simple explanation
thanks for the template, great design.
Is there a tweak to reduce the space between paragraph breaks?
Cheers
(1) my bottom 3 widgets (recent comments, popular posts, and ThemeLib) are coming up blank, what’s going on there??
and
(2) on the side-bar, the middle widget (for recent posts) is coming up blank as well.
How do I fix these?? I love the layout and don’t want to change layouts because I can’t fix it! Thanks!!!
Hi megs,
U can try insert the feed widget, and use the address feed of your blog,
For Recent Post:
http://www.raw.laceandbamboo.com/feeds/posts/default/and for Recent Comments:
http://www.raw.laceandbamboo.com/feeds/comments/default/Hi admin..can i put “read more” hack??
awesome! i fixed those! thank you.
i have one more question: how do you make your blog show the blog posts in “preview” style, where each blog is only partially displayed and there’s an option to “view more” for each?
if someone else already asked that, just forward me to the right area! so many comments, it’s hard to navigate through these…
thanks so much!!!
u can go to google and search for read more keyword and u can get that
see this blog for preview how ll it look

Nice works! just wonder how to add a new gadget at the bottom like you do?
Looking forward to your kind reply soon.
Thanks!
Nice theme.
Thanks.
But it renders poorly in IE??
Widgets appear outside of the body in IE but just fine in FF??
I love this one.
Good work, man
It looks a very professional theme.. I tried this theme but I faced some issues when I opened it inside Internet Explorer.. Has anyone faced any issue with this??
Not many theme offer drop down menu.
It is good to see one here.
Thanks
I am trying to change the font colors and I can’t do so from Blogger’s internal xml system like on most templates. I simply want to change font colors from blue to red for title text and green for links. For some reason I can’t find this anywhere. Help?
What are these code? Is it useful for something?
<!– skip links for text browsers –>
<span id=’skiplinks’ style=’display:none;’>
<a href=’#main’>skip to main </a> |
<a href=’#sidebar’>skip to sidebar</a>
</span>
Why yoy coded “featured”?
Is there any featured area in this template?
nice clean template .. love it!
for let more people enjoy your nice template .. i edited it to be ready for rtl languages .. this is the live demo is just a test blog .
http://tajribia2.blogspot.com/
so can i share the rtl version in my blog with original credit and live rtl demo ?
and i ask if can i add a rtl editor link ( to my blog ) in rtl template version (in footer ) just for supporting blogger beginner users ?
thank you
You can share it on your blog with my credit links kept intact.
You can add your own link “Rtl version by …” though
Oh! Thank you
Nice touch, I like your rtl version
Congrats on a great template and thank you very much for sharing.
I can’t replace the logo< what I dO?
Is there any way to get the labels to show in each post? Also can I get the comment link & labels to be at the bottom? Thanks
How to find http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll96/themelib/arthemia/logo.png .. I will replace it with my logo
Thanks
I really like the template…it is very functional yet clean.
This is awesome. The WP Themes are divided into several PHP files while the BLogger theme seem to be a single CSS file.. How do you Port wp to theme? Is it a process or you coded it up from scratch to look like Arthemia?
I think some standard templates of blogger are taken and they are developed in reference to the specific WP theme.
