Vasiliki is a 3 column blogger template originally created by Web2feel and ported to blogger by Best Theme. The template is unique in a way since the posts in the main column are arranged in grids in a brick fashion.
As you can see in the screenshot above, the header section includes the blog title, menu bar and search box. To edit the menu bar, go to Design--Layout and click on add new widget at the top of posting named linklist/ Top Menu/Menu etc, insert link widget to it, and save the changes.
Now for the important part - the main post area - use images which are 600px, in case they larger than that it will be resized automatically. Each grid displays post summaries with the 'Read More' link and number of comments.
The sidebar is widgetized so you can add different content including archive, recent posts, categories, sponsor ads etc.
