New RSS Bandit Formatter Stylesheet - C64

I was fooling around with building a custom stylesheet for formatting RSS items within RSS Bandit and I created one that tries to emulate the Commodore 64 look and feel. While it is possible to download the exact font used by the 64, I chose not to require a font download and instead chose Terminal. It is close enough and exists on most machines. If you want this style for yourself, download the template here and save it to the following directory (assuming a default installation):

C:\Program Files\RssBandit\templates

If you're designing your own templates, I have a little tip for you.

Grab the XML for an RSS from your cache located at C:\Documents and Settings\PHaack\Application Data\RssBandit\Cache on my computer.

Drop it in your templates directory.

Open it up in a text editor (such as Notepad) and add the following line just underneath the XML declaration

<?xml:stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="PathToYourFormatter.xslt"?>

Now when you open the XML file in Internet Explorer, it automatically applies the stylesheet to the XML allowing you to quickly test changes to your formatter stylesheet. Note that this will not work if you are using the AppStartupPath or AppUserDataPath variables as these will not be in context.
