Untuk men-design sendiri template Friendster blog, ada 3 hal yang dibutuhkan:
1. Sebuah software untuk meng-edit gambar (Photoshop, Photo Impact, atau semacamnya)
2. Website untuk meng-upload gambar/ image hosting (Photobucket, Imageshack, atau semacamnya)
3. Sedikit pengetahuan tentang CSS (Cascading Style Sheet)
…
Kode CSS untuk Friendster blog adalah sebagai berikut [kode aku ambil dari template Lamborghini]:
<style type="text/css">
