For those of whom might have liked my Brat Princess template were it not so overtly, "girly," I have created the Brat Prince Blogger template, to serve as it's more universal counterpart.Like it's predecessor, Brat Prince is equipped with special features including the implementation of a smooth-scrolling and auto-fade out "back to top" link utilizing jQuery, as well as the "all CSS speech bubble" detail on the post comment link.
This version of the template also boasts it's lack of images. That's right, this template is 100% image-less, which may make adding your own should you like to do so, all that much easier. And of course, font and color options that can be changed via the Blogger Dashboard, from within the "Template Designer," within the "Advanced," subcategory. Enjoy!

Customizing Top Links
These links require no editing and will automatically reflect the data specific to your blog. Should you like to remove these or change them anyways, you will find them between these snippets of code<!-- start top links edit links or remove if you wish -->
<!-- end top links -->
Customizing Main Linkbar
Add your links to the main linkbar simply by clicking the "Design" tab from the Blogger Dashboard, within the "Page Elements" subcategory. From there click on on the widget labeled "Linkbar," to add your links. If you do not want to use the linkbar, simply leave this widget empty.This menu is set up so that tabs will be "highlighted" if they are the current URL. I.E in the demo blog, the "Home" link is highlighted when at the "Home" page.
Smooth Scrolling "Back to Top" Link with Auto Fade
As an additional feature of the template, a "Back to Top" link has been added, that utilizes jQuery to scroll smoothly upwards, and so that it "fades out" when the page is at the top, and fades back into view as the page is scrolled downwards. Check it out in the demo blog!Comment Link CSS Speech Bubble
Another little extra, was the "all CSS" speech bubble detail given to the post comments link. This will in essence hopefully generate more comments by drawing attention to the post comments.I would to get some feedback on this template!
