    Hello Guys, a year ago I was a pretty active blogger, making some ok money with adsense. I started working more and going to school and then I had to stop, but now I am coming back. Before, I was using blogger, so I was wondering if any of you know of sites where I can get some nice looking layouts other than the ones blogger provides. Before, wordpress didnt let you put adsense, you had to pay a fee, are they still like this? Thanks a lot guys and I am excited to be back!

    Don't even mess around...go straight to self hosted wordpress, (wordpress.org), there are hundreds of templates , plug ins, and customizations available to you.
    Hosting is cheap. The benefits are endless.

    I have to agree! It is best to self host a wordpress blog. I was a big blogger fan and only used paid hosting for websites. However, in December, I put up my first self hosted blog and am never looking back. It has so much more to offer that it is worth the money. That is what I recommend. However, if you decide not to, Blogger is the best for freebies. Just search Google for free blogger templates. I have never had much luck in that sense, so I use what they offer which is quite a lot now.
