Happy to do so.

Damn right, if they're any good.
I think the main point to note Jeff is that if anyone takes the time to create their own theme, i'd be astonished to find they would be happy for all and sundry to use it also. I have always seen that as one of the points of a new theme, to look different from the masses and not fall into the 'used a 1000 times kind of design'.

Sunshine, you do not want to annoy Mr Crowe.

He was the original Mr Pink.


Anyways. Back to the thread topic. Free themes, whats wrong with the ones already there? Apart from the fact that you want better ones for free. They work, they've been tested to the absolute full and many tweaks can be found on here, even to the point of making them pretty unrecognisable.

I have that advert with 'DADS PANTS' throughout blasting in my mind. The one with the blue y-fronts of his dad and he jumps off the top diving board. I can't recall wtf it sells, so pretty crap advert really.

he's right you know.

the original themes, stripped down dont take a lot of effort to re-combobulate.

and from absolutely norhing (no template at all) it took me about 3 days to get a pretty site together with basic features.

[dave_finlayson]

Ask yourself this.

You spend X amount of time creating a theme for your website. Are you then going to give it whoever to use as they wish? I think not

OR, you do decide to do a freeby for the community and create one for free. Are you going to support it when people start e-mailing you directly 50 times a day saying how do you do this, how have I screwed that? You're a better man than I if you would.

Free themes are a nice, but totally unworkable, idea in my opinion. Unless your name is Mr Good Samaritan.

combobulate

You can get vaccinated for that nowadays.

[jont]

We design Web site

I see the sites listed in your signatures are all standard Actinic themes and not ones created from scratch. Confused

[dave_finlayson]

combobulate

Deeply gutted this is not a real word!

[gabrielcrowe]

jont, i wasnt gong to mention that, you cruel chap you.

[leehack]

Put the below three words into a sentence to explain what always happens when there is a sniff of free templates on the horizon:

Fart, disappear, wind.
