Where did you get this "cute template"? You're free to use any
template that you wish in your blog - it's your blog. But if the
"cute template" doesn't work, no fair whining "Is there any realy
support on here?" - there may be support, and there may not be,
depending upon where the "cute template" came from.

It's not just the "CUTE" templates that won't work! Its all of them
except for the blogger layouts. And yes I will whine! I don't want a
basic look. I'm looking for a different kind of look. And lots of
other bloggers have them. So, there is a problem and I want it
fixed! And there are other problems associated with it. not just the
template and yes, I do need some techinical suuprot on this! not just
people like you complaining about me wanting help!

Well, this is technical support, so whine all you want. Blogger is
free, technical support is free, you are here and this is it.
One of the most common problems that bloggers create for themselves is
trying to use HTML based templates in a Layouts blog, or use XML based
templates in a Classic blog. That doesn't work.
So, if you're having problems with the third party templates that you
are getting, make sure that they're the right version of template.
Then, look around the forums for other people having problems with
third party templates, and see if their problems reflect yours.

The thing is too, I had one of these cute layouts. And when I changed
it all t he problems started, so I reverted back to the cute one I
had, and it wouldn't let me. So I tried to go back to my first
orignal saved one and it too wouldn't let me.

Everything that you've described so far sounds like confusion about
Classic vs Layouts templates. If the blog uses Classic templates, you
can't use Layouts, and vice versa. You can't fit a square peg into a
round hole.
http://blogging.nitecruzr.net/2008/04/classic-or-layouts-template-you...
Many third party templates are for Classic blogs, because Classic
blogs have been around longer, and because with Classic templates you
have to do more work to add accessories. Both factors made the market
for Classic templates larger.
Layouts templates are easier to customise without editing the template
HTML, so the third party services haven't developed as many
templates. So if your blog uses Layouts, you need to check the cute
layouts and make sure that they are written for Layouts, before trying
to jam one onto your blog.
Your not getting it. I did have one of these templates and it worked
just fine until i switched it. Then I tried to go back to it and it
won't let me. I keep getting the bx-xdmtya error. Or other errors
come up. I know its free, but your not understanding my stress and
getting help. And yes there are alot of others out there with the
same problem and they too are not getting help. If I can't find a
layout that represents me, I will do to a different blog site that
allows me too, but what I am getting at also is that others have
them. Others have the same ones I wanted also, so, they work for
them, why not for me?

But how do you know which will work, because my confusion is I did
have one cute one, I tried a new one and it wouldn't work, so I went
to go back to the origanl cute one I had, and now it won't work. It
either comes up with codes on my blog, or errors. like Bx-xdmtya
amongs others.

I didn't ask you what "funny codes" referred to, my hope was that you
were simply reporting template corruption that could be fixed by
restoring a standard template. If you're getting a bX- code when you
try to restore the template, you're pretty much done, until Blogger
fixes the problem.
