If you ever write html code, learn to do it right with Cascading Style Sheets. This page shows you some of the things that are possible using CSS. Positioning with tables, changing fonts/colors in html tags, and similar techniques are out-dated and make html code cumbersome and hard to follow. CSS allows you to put your style and layout code all in one place (even in a seperate file) and also allows much more flexiblity than plain html.

CSS Layout Techniques
All these pages have links to other tutorials and stuff, but these are some of the ones I like.
Note: Microsoft Internet Explorer does not fully support CSS even though Microsoft claims that it does. The W3C is the organization that controlls web technologies like HTML, XML, CSS, and many more. They set the specifications for CSS which are very clear on how, exactly, certain code is supposed to be displayed. Microsoft seems to ignore these specifications and just does it however they want. Mozilla does a much better job complying with the standards and I think that the mozilla browser has a lot of nice features and is overall a better piece of software than MS IE. So if you don't use it already, check it out. It's open source and therefore completely free.

All the blogger.com templates use css.
My template is also CSS, but I've written most of it myself. My code is kinda messy though... I just add stuff as I go along and don't worry about making the code pretty or anything.
