Chris,

I really like the new look that blogger has but do you know if there is anyway to chose 1 of the formats like Magazine and to keep the blog in that format not only for myself but for my readers as well?

Also the spacing especially around pictures doesn't always hold. I like a space under the caption of the picture and the new paragraph. In edit it looks like it is there but when I go to view there isn't always a space. This is frustrating so not sure if there is an easy way of ensuring this happens or somethingBlogger needs to deal with. Time is always an issue when travelling and internet is not always available or very expensive and limited.

Thanks

Donna MacKinnon

Are you talking about the new 'Dynamic View' templates?

If so, you make it stick by going into your blog's settings, choosing Templates, then pick a dynamic view and "Apply to Blog" . 

Although the dynamic views (especially 'magazine') are really cool – there is a major drawback.  You will lose any sidebar Widgets.  I use the widgets extensively and am not willing to let go of them.  I'm waiting till they add widget support to the dynamic views myself.
