I decided to surprise all fans of Amazing Grace theme, with an ice-fresh free blog theme which I call Blue Grace.
In all modifications of Amazing Grace, blue seemed to be the most popular so I decided to redesign the theme with blue in mind.
There are other subtle changes, like rss feed icon, typography and header styles. I am keeping the theme live on blog for few days so you can get a better feel of it and provide feedback. This is not final and I hope to tweak the theme in the upcoming days.
Download Blue Grace theme for your blog.

Hello Vladimir, I appreciate this very nice theme of yours, but is there a way to fit the theme in full view by removing the scrollbar? the theme looks too wide to me, but all in all, its good. Thanks.
It looks great. I have downloaded it.
Vladimir,
Thanks you for a job well done. I made the switch with no difficulty what so ever.

This is THE theme, so awesome. I just installed it, I'll fool around with the colors and stuff. But it's so awesome! Thanks!
@Will - Photos in heading has been covered many times in original amazing grace thread and also in the forums - have a peek.
Thanks everyone for the support. I am glad you like the theme!
How do I change the photos in the heading as I really prefer beach photos and would like them to run exclusively as many believe that living at the ocean is a sign of success... Or am I just stuck with the photos in the Blue Grace Theme? And I don't understand how to manipulate the photos.
I do like the blue theme much better and would like to thank you for it. It has been proven that a majority of people prefer blue to any other color.
Thank you,
-Will
I wrote last week that I'd find a site to use Blue Grace on since I have three blogs with the Amazing Grace theme already and I created a blog today. It looks gorgeous. I love it! Thanks Vladimir!

Ooh, this is lovely! I love the Amazing Grace theme and have it on 4 of my blogs. I really think I'll have to change at least one to Blue Grace.
Thanks for a great theme, Vlad!
Wow wow wow! Thanks. I have been using your theme for quite a while now and THIS is exactly the colours I wanted. I won't change my current site, as I have put quite some work into it, but I am starting another one end of this month and will definitely then use Blue Grace. Please let us know when all tweaks and stuff is sorted out.
Is there a way to convert Amazing Grace to the blue shade directly?
It`s very nice. Like sky, like ocean, like eyes... I` like it :)
What a beautiful scheme! Very appropriate for your Dalmatian photos etc. I'm hoping you'll consider doing something completely different - I'd love a rich red theme for use with my flamenco and belly dance sites.
Vladimir,
I was an Amazing Grace Theme User and now I am looking forward to trying your Blue Grace. Your themes are a cut above the rest man. Great Work!!
Regards,
AG
I appreciate so this new version I've already translated in French. The link: Blue Grace 1.0 Fr
Great theme. I appreciate the work that went in to it, and your willingness to make it available. All the best to you.
Thank you for this very Mediterranean theme.
Would it be possible in the next version to have a little more space between each ticket?
Wow...I thought I really liked the original Amazing Grace. Now I don't know...this blue is so nice!
Thank you for all you do.
XOXO
Thanks, Steph!
Vladimir - I love the calming visions of blue in this WordPress theme! You are right that it would be great for water-related blogs. What a nice alternative to the Amazing Grace theme. Stephanie
UPDATE To earlier comment:
*I got the fonts to change. I guess it just didn't take until I hit refresh like 30 times. Eventually the font's changed.
*I did figure out the social bookmarks. I forgot to remove "return" from functions.php.
I am still having issues with the other items I mentioned. Thanks!
Hi Vlad,
Wow, what can I say! Looks great. I have been trying to implement on my site and would like to ask the following.
*I cannot stand "Times New Roman" anywhere. How do I change it to say Arial? I went through the stylesheet and replaced every font name I could find to Arial but I still see Times on my site. Help?
*I use a plug in called "My Link Order". As you might see on my site, it puts a "dot" in front of the subcategories of this plug in (links & media). I have chatted with the plugin developer about this and he said the issue is theme related and I should ask the them developer about it. Any thoughts on removing those dots?
*The other thing I noticed on this theme is the social icon thingies at the bottom of the posts are gone. They were there this morning when I was on your older theme, but once I switched to blue, they disappeared. Help? (I also noticed that they link to images on your site, when your site was down yesterday, they didn't work. Maybe you should adjust the theme so those icons are stored locally within the theme?)
*Rotating images - Obviously this didn't work as I had the older colors for the file "_bg-frame.jpg". I went ahead and created a new jpg of this with the new colors. If anyone needs it, just let me know.
Thanks Vlad, we do appreciate you!
Thanks Amy! If you ever want to start an eco-blog on water you will have a theme :)
I love the shades of blue. I think this is a perfect option to the original version of Amazing Grace.
