After "I'm Smart" and "Awesome" Gallery" here comes another free blogger template - "Stunning Looks". The most important feature of this template is the rounded corners of common boxes like header-wrapper, content-wrapper, main-wrapper, etc. But this feature will not work with IE, don't worry, still it won't look bad there. You can try the demo from the link below. Hope you all would like this too.

Hello,
Can you help me to install this template? I really liked its designing and am looking forward to use it in one of my blogs, but co-author of my blog insists for a three columnar blog, can we make this three columnar one? Also for few more things i need your help. You can contact me on admin(at)shirdisaibabastories(dot)org.
Thanks and Regards
@Ms. Hetal Patil....First of all thanks as you liked this design...& secondly, I'm always happy to to help.....well, just put on your queries here and I'll reply asap.
As you asked if I'm gonna make it 3 column one so, I would say that it is very much possible but it sounds little worthless to spend time on old one as it may take around the same time to make adjustments in which I can have a new one.
But, I would like to know if you are planning to have a theme based on SAI BABA, then I can specially design one for you, coz, me too a big SAI BABA "bhakt", don't worry, I won't charge anything for that! Just, give some ideas you would like to have on theme, I'll try my best!
Hello,
It would be my and my Sai brother Rana Gill's pleasure if we can get specific theme based on SAI BABA JI. I would request you to visit this blog SAI TERE HAZAARON NAAM and decide something unique. The basic features like read more, comment avtar, upper menu bar, beautiful header (though we have our own header picture ready) etc are some of the features we would like to have.
We would like to keep the colours in tact since it matches with cd cover of the album which we are pushing up on the blog. Other technical aspects you know better and i am sure you will not miss them.
Thank you very much for your kind helping hand.
May Baba bless you always.
Jai Sai Ramji
