This tutorial will get your newly acquired Blogger theme up and running on your blog in just a few minutes. This tutorial is for Blogger themes only. If you want to know how to add a theme to Wordpress, check our guide on installing Wordpress themes.
1. Open a new tab or window and go to Blogger.com.
2. Log in to the website. If you are already logged in, look for this window:
3. Click the Manage layout link at the bottom.
4. Now you should see your blog's template. Here you can move sidebar items (called widgets) and add new ones. However, your first task is changing your theme.
5. In the menu, choose edit HTML.
6. When you arrive at the Edit HTML page, it's a good idea to back up your existing template. Click the download full template link to do so.
7. When you made sure you've got a backup of the old template on your hard drive, it's time to change your old template to a new one.
8. Find the ZIP archive you downloaded from this website and unzip/unrar it.
9. In the folder contained in the archive, there are three files: license.txt, readme.txt and themename.xml . For instance, if you downloaded the Grandaddy deluxe theme, the .xml file will be named grandaddydeluxe.xml or something similar.
10. Now you have 2 options.
* Either open the .xml file in a plain text editor (like Notepad on Windows) and copy paste the contents to the edit template field.
* Or, use the restore template function to upload your new template. This seems illogical, but it's the easiest way to add a new theme.
Click the browse button and find the .xml file on your hard drive. Hit the upload button.
11. Don't forget to save your template.
12. Presto! Your blog has officially been pimped.
