Thanks for letting me know about the 1st inquiry. I will take a look at it more closely.
And probably we forgot the style the pagination in the blog layout. Because we mainly focused on Virtuemart layouts, which is much much more important.
Do you need my assistance on styling the pagination numbering? did you take care of them already? Couple CSS lines would be enough to style them though.
something like:
ul.pagination{list-style:none;}
ul.pagination li {float:left;}
ul.pagination li a, ul.pagination li span {padding:3px5px;border:1pxsolid#eee;}
ul.pagination li a:hover, ul.pagination li span {background:#eee; coor:#666;}
I provided you the hand-written CSS lines (without actually looking the template source codes). So, it is quite possible i might have missed the wrapper.
Of course adding a wrapper ID at the beginning of the CSS rules i gave you would be more professional way, so it won't interact with other paginations elements in the website, because there are also pagination elements in the Virtuemart category pages (actually VM pagination doesn't use ul.pagination class name though, but anyway..)
But i believe you are not a newbie and you know all about those.
Let me know if you need any further assistance from me.
