frugal Wordpress Theme
Version 1.0

The frugal theme is free and therefore you can use it on as many blogs/websites as you choose and give it to whomever you'd like.  There are just 2 things you CANNOT do.  You cannot remove the credits in the footer of the frugal theme and you cannot sell the frugal theme.

Most of the necessary info for you frugal theme is covered in the fruagl Theme Handbook.  Installation is like any other Wordpress theme.  For whichever frugal theme version you choose to install, be sure to upload the folder called 'frugal' and all the contents inside that directory.  Upload this folder to your themes directory in your Wordpress installation and then activate it from your Wordpress Dashboard.

Code Snippets for the 468x60 widget areas:

You don't have to use these, but if you'd like a banner image to show up in your '468x60 Header Right' widget area, just use this code in a text widget(replacing the #'s with the proper URL's):

<a href="#" ><img src="#" ></a>

If you'd like to include a simple 'share this' kind of widget area right between the post content and the comment area, just use this code in a text widget in your '468x60 Single Post' widget area:

Share this post &nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=<?php the_permalink() ?>">Stumbleupon</a> &nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=<?php the_permalink() ?>&title=<?php the_title(); ?>">Digg</a> &nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=<?php the_permalink() ?>&title=<?php the_title(); ?>">Del.icio.us</a> &nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp; Twitter <script type="text/javascript">
tweetmeme_style = 'compact';
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js"></script>

I hope you enjoy your frugal theme and I'd love to hear any feedback as you use it in your blogging endeavors.

If you like the theme, don't hesitate to share it with as many people as you possibly can! :-)
