Choosing a theme

Blogger provides a number of 'themes' these are page layouts for your blog pages. You can change the theme at any time by visiting the theme menu and selecting from the list.

You can browse the themes from the blog menu...

In this blog the theme is already customised with colours and pictures. When you first see it the theme will be very plain. I will deal with customisation on another post.

The preview shows how the current theme will look on desktop and mobile devices.

Themes control the layout. Mainly of the front page. Choose the layout and you prefer. Ignore the pictures and colours for the moment. We will be changing them when we customise the theme.

When you click one of the themes a preview popup will appear with a button on the bottom right like this:

When you have the theme you want click this button and the theme will be applied to your blog.

Remember
You can change the theme and customise it with new colours and backgrounds without losing any of your content. So any text and pictures you have in your blog will still be there even if you change the style.
