Hi. I was wondering if it was possible to tweak the Malina Blogger Template so that when I post a new post, it ALL shows up on the main page. I noticed it shows a summary and then link to a "read more" button.

</script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
//<![CDATA[
function removeHtmlTag(strx,chop){
if(strx.indexOf("<")!=-1)
{
var s = strx.split("<");
for(var i=0;i<s.length;i++){
if(s[i].indexOf(">")!=-1){
s[i] = s[i].substring(s[i].indexOf(">")+1,s[i].length);
}
}
strx = s.join("");
}

Hi,
First of all, I love the layout! I'm so happy that it was very easy to incorporate with my blog.
I was just wondering:
1. How I can fix the Twitter link on the top of the page.
2. I'm not getting anything when I added the Followers Gadget on my blog.
