I've come up with this idea:

I don't think it's a good idea to 'borrow' pieces from other themes without permission from authors

Thanks for your opinions.

I'm just a buginner here, and I think it'd be easier for me to start by modifying an existing theme.

Maybe I should have said that "I've done this modification" instead of that "I've come up with this idea" !

Sorry for that!

I think it's legit to borrow some things from other themes as long as it's not released to the public. He can always ask for permission later. You didn't see him saying "I'm releasing my theme today" did you? Nice theme.

Are the "borrowed" elements going to be replaced by your own someday, or is this more of a mod?

Thanks you all.

I'm actually trying hard to make a brand-new theme, but, like I mentioned earlier, I'm still pretty new in making themes, so I started with borrowing the nice theme--Grey--as a template, and then adding different pieces to it. I only try it on my own PB while working on it, never published it.

Simply, I'm just saying that I'm not stealing other people's idea.

Sorry for causing the misunderstandings!
