Selecting the right template for my blog

Hi all,

I just purchased headway themes standard a bit earlier. As I can choose only 1 official template, I dont want to make a wrong choice.

My main purpose is to have a blog with a lot of content. As a start, I want to tranfer my files in rguindians.com to indiargu.com

1. If I select the template, Urbanite, will I be able to resize the height of the header image and remove the visuals in both the side bars?

2. If I select Ultra Vision, will I be able to reduce the size of the photos such that I can show the title of the blog post and the first few sentences of the blog post as well as in the case of urbanite?

3. In urbanite, if I click on a blog post in home page to read more, I cannot see the social media sharing buttons at the bottom as in the case of ultra vision. Will I be able to add them in urbanite?

4. If I select a template with slide bar, will I be able to reduce the height of the slidebar; but still making sure that the images I put in the slide bar fit perfectly well? But, dont you think that using a slidebar will reduce the page load speed of my homepage?

Thank you very much in advance.

    That's the fun part about this business is you have to shoot and then aim. Sure there is a lot of stuff you can do to help increase your chances of success but it comes down to building it and sending traffic to see what that traffic does. The more you watch it you will see things and be able to adjust your landing page to fit your visitors increasing your numbers.

    Not sure why you went Headway with what you are doing.

    I'm all for Headway, but mostly because you don't need to use a template.

    It's all about creating your own custom template with the builder.

    As to the templates they give to you to get you started, you should be able to edit those - but without spending some time learning how headway works, you are likely going to drive yourself nuts trying to do it.

    Get ready to post your questions in the private headway forum.
