As you can see. This is not the original design i had in mind and was working towards but this its close enough. Blogger has this thing where you can design your own template just by making a few choices. You will have to login using draft.blogger.com I don't think it works on the regular blogger accounts yet but its really cool so try it out. Here's a video from the blogger team showing off what's possible.
I may continue on my original template if i have the time but for now this will do.
