Looks like stock SDK theme with new icons and background. Keep up the good work anyways.

Plankton was cc-by-sa, but I don't see any specific licensing on the green template.

Not trying to be critical here; it's always good to have more themes, even if they aren't comprehensive.

Um, if I'm reading his site correctly he won't be selling the theme with the stock icons, it will be free.

The "Premium" theme (the one you could buy) will include his Zeta design icons.

Which look^ pretty dang good if you ask me. :)

Green theme is CC and if you use default icons they are not in your package so your really not selling them.

Oh, I guess I missed that. I'm still kinda confused... Without the icons, isn't it just a stock Nokia theme with a different wallpaper? Also, the Premium version with the icons would presumably still contain all those Nokia-owned theme graphics, unless he's actually packaging the icons by themselves.

I couldn't find a license for the green theme. Under US copyright law, things are copyrighted by default unless the author declares otherwise. Not sure how it is in other countries. If it is CC licensed, it's most likely cc-by-sa, meaning that derivatives also need to be under the same (or a compatible) license.

I guess we should send him a tersely worded letter on behalf of all of us armchair lawyers telling him we are happy with the 2 themes Nokia gave us and to not impede on our individual right to rip off other peoples work independently.

Who's with me? :rolleyes:

It's nice work, btw.

I totally agree that it'd be ridiculous for Nokia to stop people from making forks of their themes. I'm all for improving on their work. I just thought it'd be kinda funny if he's going to sell the fork and not provide the template/source for free. Sorry if I offended you, it wasn't my intent.

And you're right, the icons and backgrounds do look good.

Green Theme is made by Kontorri and if you ask him is CC just like Theme Maker is.
