For those of you who love the simplicity of our popular ColdBlue WordPress theme, but use Blogger as your blogging platform…you can now rejoice! The theme has been converted into a Blogger template. Thanks to the kind folks over at akOOgle for making the conversion. It is cool to see the theme presented in the Blogger (blogspot) format. View the Live demo or checkout the screenshot below. Further template information and installation instructions can be found Here.

I hope you find this useful.

I’ve recently implemented a couple of updates to the ColdBlue WordPress Theme, which includes (finally) irradiating the annoying font size issues in IE, for good. Head over to the ColdBlue Page for more details and the download link. Upgrading is highly recommended, and is just a matter of overwriting your old theme files.

On a slightly related note, I’ve also written some guidelines for those of you who wish to share the theme with others. Many people have been uploading the zip file to their own web space and hosting it as such. While I do appreciate this venture, it does not allow me to track the number of downloads, nor ensure that only the very latest version is distributed. I would prefer a link to the ColdBlue page http://webrevolutionary.com/coldblue and/or a direct link to the latest file itself http://webrevolutionary.com/ColdBlue_latest.zip

Also, yesterday was a record-breaking day of traffic, with over 2,000 unique visitors laying eyes on this blog, which is even more visits than I received when ColdBlue was mentioned on Smashing Magazine and WP Designer.

I’m currently working on (amongst a mountain of other work) a brand new design for this blog, which is looking pretty cool so far. Once this is released, I’ll be wrapping up the current design as a free, publicly available theme.

More posts to come. Peace.

Just a quick note; I’ve updated ColdBlue with a couple of fixes. If you’re using the theme I suggest you move to the new version.
Apologies for the frequency of posts about this one theme, I’ll resume my normal posting habits very soon.
Enjoy, and remember to let me know if you find any more bugs.

ColdBlue is a WordPress Theme created to be aesthetically pleasing, open, minimalistic and easy to use. It is absolutely free to download, however if you enjoy the theme please be considerate and leave the link intact. This courtesy will go towards further development of ColdBlue and future themes (which will always be free).
