Some templates have features that are different from normal templates. For example, if a theme allows you to customize your own header image, it is considered as a special effect. Or if a theme has a magazine style design, this is also a special effect.
We will evaluate the level of difficulty of the special effect and assign points to the templates.
The following table shows the list of special effect:
| no | Description | Point |
| 1 | Color-changing feature | 2 |
| 2 | Foreign language format support | 2 |
| 3 | Reaction System Available | 1 |
| 4 | Adsense Ready | 1 |
| 5 | Footer Gadget | 1 |
| 6 | Magazine Style | 1 |
| 7 | Feedburner Ready | 1 |
| 8 | Flickr Gallery Ready | 1 |
| 9 | Video Space | 1 |
| 10 | Tabber Ready | 1 |
Color-changing feature
We can test this feature by access into Layout > Fonts and Colors, normally the template adapted from WordPress would not include this feature.
Foreign Language Format Support
We can test this feature by access into Setting> Formatting> Language (normally we choose ‘Arabic’ as testing language as the Arabic format is totally different with normal English format), normally the template adapted from WordPress would not include this feature.
Reaction System Available
We can test this feature by access into ‘Layout’ and click on the ‘Edit’ of the ‘Blog Post’, then check the ‘Reactions:’ and ‘Save’. As this is one of the newest features from the Blogger, many templates adapted from WordPress would not include this feature.
Customizable Header and Description
This means that the Header and Description is editable in the ‘Layout’ mode. Some Blogger templates have no ability to edit the Header and Description in the ‘Layout’ mode, but only in ‘Edit HTML’ mode.
