As you’ve probably already noticed, eBlog Templates has released a couple new design changes to the site. The most obvious being the new logo which took several weeks and two different design firms to create before I was happy with the results. I plan on writing another article on the logo design process and show you a bunch of design comps that were presented to me.
The other main change has to do with the left sidebar. It was widened to make room for our new 125 x 125 ad sponsorship spots which replaced the old navigation (moved to the top bar). Actually, we had to widen the entire site to 960px so it would fit. There was a lot of wasted space which we wanted to take full advantage of considering the amazing growth we’ve had month over month.
There were also a few alignment and css fixes rolled out with this new layout as well as an update to the Ad Code Converter.
This has taken a lot of my time over the past few days hence the limited amount of new articles and templates. I’ve got a boatload of user submitted templates that I still need to review and approve (over 70+) too. It’s great to see all the cool WordPress and Blogger templates from you!
Let me know what you think of the new logo and sidebar. It’s always helpful to get feedback from my visitors so I can make adjustments if need be.

one question? are you using the BuySellAds.com service for the 4 125×125 spots?
@John Doe, no the ads are just static right now but an advertising program will soon be setup. Then the spots will be for sale on a monthly basis.
david, please tell us how to set the ad spots like you did as well as those ad spots which come built-in such as in simle-red wordpress theme.
😯 Testing 🙄
