Add Your Own Links:
I have separated all those 5 posts areas with different colors. Note that description is the main heading for the post. So don't confuse it with a small paragraph of few lines. Check the demo if you haven't.
Post 1 | Post 2 | Post 3 | Post 4 | Post 5
Step 2: Adding CSS
Now go to Design >> Edit HTML and tick the check box. And don't forget to download your template for backup purposes.Now search for the following code by (Ctrl + F):
]]></b:skin>
Now just above this code, add the following code:
/*----------- Blogging Roots -----------------*/
#mbtboxes{height:210px;overflow:hidden;margin:0px;position:relative;width:948px;background:; border:0px solid #333; padding:5px 5px;}
#mbtboxes ul{ margin-left: 10px; padding: 0pt; position: relative; list-style-type: none; z-index: 1; width: 100%; }
#mbtboxes ul li{ overflow: hidden; float: left; width: 180px; height: 180px; border-top:0px solid #333; margin-right:6px; padding:2px 0px 4px 0px; }
#mbtboxes ul li:hover{ border-bottom:1px solid #c5c5c5; }
#mbtboxes img{width:150px;height:100px; padding:2px; border: 1px solid #A3A3A3; border-radius:10px; -moz-border-radius:10px; margin-top:0px;}
#mbtboxes img:hover{border: 1px solid #c5c5c5; }
.mbtbody img{float:left}
.mbtbody {position:relative;margin:0 5px 0 5px;width:170px;height:210px;display:inline;float:left;color:#c4c4c4}
.mbtbody h3{padding:5px 0;font-size:12px;font-weight:bold; font-family: verdana, sans-serif, arial; margin:0;}
.mbtbody h3 a:link,.mbtbody h3 a:visited{color:#2F97FF;}
.mbtbody h3 a:hover{color:#c5c5c5}
.mbtbody p{margin:0; padding:0 0;color:#cdcdcd;font:10px normal verdana, sans-serif, Arial;}
.Fadein3 img {
filter:alpha(opacity=80);
opacity: 0.8;
border:0;
}
.Fadein3:hover img {
filter:alpha(opacity=100);
opacity: 1.0;
border:0;
}
Now simply save your template and would be all done.
NOTE: The images that you would link to the widget, should be 170px width and 100px in height. You may like to read :
Customization:
Say if you want to match the widget with your colored template. You can easily do that by changing the background color code that i have made bold the coded above.
background: Your Color Code;
Or you could add a border to the widget by using 1 or 2 at most instead of value 0.
border:0px
Thats all.
