Nice layout. But the template doesnt display the “leaf picture” and upper header/ search box doesnt display.
Too bad….

It would be very helpful if you could help me with these.

hi guys! this template is amazing.. I only have one question, is it possible to change the grid style so that one of the sidebars comes to the right of the main container and the other one to stay on the left. Well, obviously it should be possible, but how is it done?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers, —

Hi guys,
I’ve been trying and trying and trying to figure this template out but it’s so hard as it uses that 960 grid system which I am not familiar with.
My issue is that all of my images are now overlapping onto the sidebar. I’ve tried moving the sidebar, tried altering the img sizes – NOTHING WORKS. It is so frustrating. No matter what codes I use the template doesn’t change at all.
Please suggest how I can move the sidebar a little more to the right, or change the images so that they will by default resize to 460px.

Never mind, I seem to have fixed that problem. Now I have encountered a new problem – the layout shows up terribly in IE. I have tested all other browsers and it displays fine in them.
Please let me know if there is a separate XML file available for IE? I would still like IE users to be able to view it properly!

I tried to install the navigation bar along the top of the template but for some reason it’s not working properly. The nav bar is displaying the titles of the “links” but they aren’t appearing to be clickable and they definitely do not link to anything.
Please help!

I LOVE this template! Just one question, where is the code for the quote box section? I’d love to use it but can’t figure it out, thanks!

Looks beautiful but couldn’t get any changes to ‘stick’ in Blogger. Every change I made on post fonts etc. kept changing and, when I logged out of Blogger, the whole template changed. Finally gave up and downloaded something else that works better. Pity, but it doesn’t seem to be coded correctly?

I LOVE this template but is there a way to change the “Search” “Home” “Feed” etc words at the top to English?
Many thanks in advance!!!!
Claudia 12 June 2010 at 13:27
@Ginny: There is an english version, too. Just check the package you downloaded and find the KeepItSimple-EN file. Now, if you want to modify the top links, you may read our FAQ ;)
Ginny 15 June 2010 at 13:27
@Claudia: Many thanks, Claudia!

Is this template no longer available? None of the download links seem to work.
Petey 4 March 2011 at 15:06
Never mind, just got it to work. I had tried on multiple OS platforms, but all of the sudden it works.
Claudia 5 March 2011 at 20:25
@Petey: The download button works fine. Maybe you may try in a different browser… But if id still doesn’t work, please go to the author’s page.

I am really pleased with the simple style of this template. Just one thing, I want to replace the leaf image with another image and can not get it to work. Can you suggest how I can do this?
Nice template!

I really really reallyyyy love this. One problem though, I dont need 2 sidebars. Is it possible to get rid of 1 or both?
thanks! :D
Francisco 25 August 2011 at 11:58
@Zahra Mmm if you don’t know html it’s a little complex, but you can try deleting the section with id “sidebar1”.
Zahra 25 August 2011 at 13:19
Hi Francisco,
The only sidebar in the code is
and I dont think thats what needs to be deleted? :/
Zahra 25 August 2011 at 13:21
oh it didnt paste the code but it was about title styling and formatting stuff.
I dont know code but I know a little bit about how to delete stuff and change minor things:P

The responsive drop down menu (toggle button) does not appear on mobile devices as shown in demo. Anyone found a fix for this?
