Bugs…bugs and bugs…search page breaks up in IE and Firefox. ‘top.png’ gives 404.
And this download page says ‘0.2′ but downloaded file is RAR file which is ‘01′ is it old version? I think so.
Did english translation with google languages.
Anyway its a great theme with really amazing visual appeal. I liked it the moment I saw it. Although I am still making changes to make it work properly but it looks really nice.

archive.php - also contains serious errors, which make it unviewable…

It should be noted that the vast majority of the problems with the Archive page can be fixed by changing the id in the very first div from ‘content’ to ‘contentwrap’.
It should also be noted that all of the German text can be translated in either the functions page (access it in WP’s theme editor) or the ’script_quicktags’ file that is included in the downloadable archive (in the ‘js’ folder, open it in Notepad or a Notepad equivalent).
I’m not involved in the production of this theme at all, so make these modifications at your own risk. I just really like this theme and have spent some time figuring it out so I can use it.

Great theme. Shame about the CSS issues though.

[...] ¿Por dónde comienzo? Para empezar como podrán notar el blog se ve algo distinto. Hemos cambiando de look y al mismo tiempo el servicio de hosting. El cambio me tomó más tiempo de lo previsto y estuvimos fuera de órbita por un buen rato, les pido disculpas a todos y en especial a los contribuyentes ya que muy groseramente ni les avisé de los cambios. Sorry guys, pronto les envio un email con su nueva contraseña y una que otra novedad. Sé que estarán pensando que esta página cambia el template cada semana pero les prometo que este durará por lo menos un año , si es que se porta bien. Después de horas y horas buscando una plantilla fácil de manejar y que tenga todos los requisitos que queremos, decidí optar por esta y hacerle algunos cambios menores, ya que se presta para modificaciones, tiene mucho espacio y contrario al caso de la anterior, trabaja con la nueva versión de Wordpress que instalamos.

Any plans of adding Widget support? Would love that feature… I haven’t got into the Widget coding yet else I would add it myself. :/

[...] In the spirit of CSS Reboot, I finally redesigned my site. I didn’t actually create something entirely original, but performed some heavy modifications to a modified upon modified theme called Freedom Blue. A good portion of this theme fit my needs and provided a nice base for my modifications and some WordPress plugins I wanted to try. I’m now using two great plugins by Alex King - Articles and Twitter Tools. [...]

[...] Blogwartung.de-Theme: Als ich blogwartung.de in’s Leben gerufen hatte, nahm ich ein bestehendes Wordpress-Theme (Template) und passte es entsprechend an (andere Farben, optimiertes Layout etc.). Frank Helmschrott fragte mich damals, ob er das Theme haben könnte bzw. weiterverwenden könnte, er würde es gerne noch weiter ausbauen und auch veröffentlichen, natürlich mit Hinweis auf den Autor etc. Ich willigte ein und mailte ihm die Theme-Dateien. Frank machte noch ein paar Anpassungen und veröffentlichte dann dieses Theme auf Wordpress.net unter FH Freedom Blue. Im Footer des Themes verlinkt Frank auf 2 Seiten von sich (blog.helmschrott.de, design.helmschrott.de) und auf sw-guide.de (in Version 0.1 noch aus Versehen auf sw-guide.net, wurde aber dann mit 0.2 korrigiert). Jeder, der nun dieses Theme einsetzt, verursacht ein +1 im Technorati-Ranking für sw-guide.de (wie übrigens auch für blog.helmschrott.de). [...]

[...] After searching through quite a few themes, I found one I liked called FH Freedom Blue. The theme was pretty simple and had the layout I was looking for. Unfortunately once I installed it, I found it was riddled with *tons* of CSS bugs, broke in IE and Firefox, much of it was in German and only it listed recent comments on the sidebar. Doh! [...]

Hi guys,
I just released an update and modification of this theme. It is now fully compatible with WordPress 2.2 and widgets. I also added a nice (in my opinion) modification to sidebar columns. CSS was re-worked and tested with main browsers for proper display.

Hi Alex, I installed the modified theme on WP 2.1 - seems to work. Will let you know if I run into teething problems. Many thanks, Manoj

Manoj and anyone else. If any issues with my mod - please use comments on my blog using link I provided. This way I can address issues and help everyone. Since theme was released from my site, makes more sense to provide support there.

Comment by Helmi — November 8, 23:58
Great theme but a bit to much German language for my understanding!
How do I change the text on the buttons for the Comments box?
Comment by Fred — November 12, 9:50
Great theme!
Comment by Jam — November 16, 2:46
Yeah, how can we change the texts to English? I really want to use this theme.
Comment by Jam — November 16, 3:16
Sorry for still some german text. I already did lots of translation work.
Next version will hopefully be completely translated and then come with a german language file (optional).
Comment by Frank — November 17, 10:06
Hi Frank, are you aware of the fact that there are still problems in IE with the horizontal nav-bar? Any idea how to fix this. It seems to be fixed on http://www.netzblogger.com!
Comment by Bernhard — November 17, 16:20
I have already changed some of the German texts in the functions.php file. Although I can’t figure out which file should I edit for the comment tags.
