This is the Frog theme for WordPress, customized and cleaned up by PRMoney. (The original version can be found here: http://free-wordpress-themes.info/frog/)
This theme has been fixed & tested to be compatible with WordPress versions 1.5, 2.0, 2.3.3, 2.5, and MU v1.3.3 (2.3.3) in FireFox 2.0, and Internet Explorer 6 & 7.
WordPress v1.5, 2.0, 2.3.3 & 2.5 users:
You’ll need the Simple Adsense plugin (based on the AdSense Share plugin)
You’ll also want to read this post regarding the new “unimproved” widgets in WP 2.5. It explains how to easily revert to the old 2.3.3 way of dragging-and-dropping widgets. The new interface is a nightmare, and ruins this theme’s widget capabilities.
WordPress MU v1.3.3 users:
You’ll need the AdSense Share plugin, which allows you to set site-wide AdSense Sharing options.
Details:
The Frog theme provides an elegant but functional design.
The header contains page links above the main graphic, an amazing close-up picture of a frog. In the empty space to the left of the frog sits the title of your blog, with the description underneath.
The main body begins with four Google AdSense Text Links spanned across both columns. The left colum contains the blog entries, while the side bar contains various functions as well a vertical Google AdSense AdUnit. The side bar has been customized to work with WordPress widgets (v2.3.3 & MU only), which allow the different functions to be re-ordered or removed all together.
NOTE: If you’re using WordPress v2.5, please read the note above about the ruined widget functionality, and how to easily fix it.
The main blog area has been customized to randomly display horizontal AdSense ads between posts. (Single pages will always have at least one.) At the bottom of the page is a footer that spans both columns.
The default Frog side bar contains an AdSense Links unit, Search, Pages, Archives, Categories, Blog Roll, and Meta Functions. Optional widgets include Adsense Banner, Calendar, and Tag Cloud. The widgets menu offers the ability to move those sidebar items around as you see fit.

Feedback:
G2Y has gone to great lengths to ensure all of our AdSense-ready WordPress themes work in the latest versions of WordPress, as well as the three major browsers.
The hardest part of modifying an existing theme for use with AdSense is dealing with the messy code found in almost every theme out there. It takes us anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours to fix all the CSS bugs and them implement the AdSense ads in the most profitable locations of the theme.
We’ve also found that theme authors don’t usually bother to actually test their theme to ensure it displays properly in FireFox & Internet Explorer (6 & 7!), or other versions of WordPress. Most theme authors also fail to test various other aspects of their themes, like the widgets, tag cloud, calendar, etc.
Every template on G2Y has been thoroughly tested in FireFox v2.0, Internet Explorer v6 & 7, and WordPress versions 1.5, 2.0, 2.3.3, 2.5, & MU v1.3.3 (2.3.3), but there’s no doubt we’ve missed something, Don’t hesitate to email support@g2y.net with bug reports, or simply leave a comment below.
