Currently in testing
The XHTML/CSS template version of the Daleri theme is finally ready. It is going through the regular testing right now, and it will include a narrow 2-column version that works well with 800px screen width. The template will be released during this weekend. If anyone would have any special requests or suggestions about styles or features to be included in the release, then post a comment or send me an e-mail.

If there is interest for a fluid version, I'll include that as well.

Hi, Andreas!
My compliments for your spectaculars template!!!
I'm an "bloger user", but I haven't found any particular or new templates for my blog..
I know some your theme for blogger, but I wish that you can translate some wordpress theme in XML, specially some web 2.o theme or other beautiful theme that you have released for WP.
I wish in some your answer.
Excuseme for my English (I'm Italian)

Andreas,
Please include the fluid version. 800px width is really too small . According to
http://www.onestat.com/html/aboutus_pressbox38.html the 800X600 resolution is used by only 18.23% . It would be great if my favorite templates andreas00-02 are 1024px wide.

Looks good! I assume the header graphic and colors are easily replaced?

I have the same issue with the fluid. I have been looking for a fluid version myself as the diversity in resolution widens more and more. Also I was wondering, are you planning to have a multilayered navigation (preferably search engine friendly). P.S. So far you have the only design that actually looks elegant and formal as a blog theme.

Another vote for a fluid variant (perhaps just the main column?).
Looking forward to the release of the fixed version though, I think I have a site that it'll work nicely with. :-)
Thanks for all your great work.

Srini Marreddy: 1024px versions for everyone!
Preview Andreas 00 / Download Andreas 00 - Based on andreas01 but improved with additional features and effects. Among other things, multple layouts and styles for tables and forms are included.
Preview Andreas 01 / Download Andreas 01 - Simple and clean 3-column layout with header and footer. Clean and classic design, the most popular of my templates. 2-column layouts and print stylesheet also included.
Preview Andreas 02 / Download Andreas 02 - 2-column fixed-width layout with multiple tab menus, made for websites with lots of content. Print stylesheet included.
These are up-to-date and coded exactly like the originals, but wider. The images may have been butchered by compression.
Andreas: could you please include these on your template page as '1024px' or 'wide' versions of the originals.

Jason Cole Thanks a lot!!!!. I tried modifying original templates before to 1024px wide but i always messed up the layout. Andreas please include them on your template page as '1024px' version. Jason i really appreciate your help.

Excellent work Jason! :) Yes, there will be multiple versions of each of my templates soon. Every template will have a default width, and for most templates there will be styles included in the CSS that will make it possible to change the width by just applying or changing a few lines of code. Pretty much like the 800px/1024px template which included both widths with two sidebar options each before. There will also be a couple of more exchangeable headers, background images and alternate styles available for each template, but that is all a part of my soon-to-come site reboot so I don't want to tell you too much yet. Until I am ready with all the updating, I'll make a post about these wide versions and link to it from the templates page!

My comments are not making it across. I believe that this has something to do with the 10 links in the comment. I know that there is a spam filter here, but I don't know the parameters it uses for spam. I am going to guess that I can't put too many links in with a very small amount of text, so I am going to try something else to get my comments across: adding more text in between links.
Preview Andreas03 Wide Version / Download Andreas03 Wide Version - This one was easy, and it turned out well, with only two images, and a couple of values needing to be modified.
Preview Andreas05 Wide Version / Download Andreas05 Wide Version - no image editing on this one, and it was really simple.
Preview Andreas06 Wide Version / Download Andreas06 Wide Version - some images had to be scaled up, so there was a loss of quality. I think that a non-fall themed version of this should probably be released.
Preview Andreas07 Wide Version / Download Andreas07 Wide Version - this one was modified beyond just making it wider, with a change to the way the background works.
Preview Andreas08 Wide Version / Download Andreas08 Wide Version - this one was really simple too: no images at all.

I have also done 03, 05, 06, 07,and 08, but i believe that a spam filter is preventing me from posting all the links, so I will give the links in a copy-and-paste manner
for the # symbol, add 3,5,6,7,8.

Jason: Yes, Akismet caught the comments since they contained too many links. I don't know the parameters myself, but I have brought them back and deleted the repeated attempts while keeping the last one. I'll post the links in a blog entry soon as well. Thanks a lot for your support! :)

I think that is a simple, yet effective theme. Well done.
I might use it at some point.
Any plans about releasing a fluid version as well?
