Had to revert back to the old template because the *new*, *fancier*, (imagine Lewis Black saying that on 8 cups of coffee) templates don't allow line-item HTML changes. Say, for instance, when I re-added the Blogs I have listed on the right side, the template widgets totally screwed up the links. The widget was looking for a feed link, and not a .html link. You would think Blogger would give the users ability to change their links if neccessary. Also, there was no way to add my own distinctive links on the sidebar. The new template has its own "lists" of things you can add. As an example, I could make a list of my favorite movies, CDs, that sort of thing. But I could not make those into links. Boo!
So, it's back to the old template. I might play with some of the settings here eventually.

I take it you're talking about the new Blog List template that blogger came up with. I think it makes a fine template for linking others blogs or websites like ESPN (it also shows if they've updated without having to visit) but it certainly doesn't work for old-fashioned list purposes. You could still create your own link box using the HTML/Javascript template, which is what I've done.
