Yes, the Hydrocarbon theme is based on joppu's Carbon theme. I have never claimed its originality. Check the changelog for the attribution to the original author.
As to not being licensed to modifications, let me quote what the copyright file says in the original Carbon theme:

The chat is here. I tried to explain:

@GrimmReaperNL - heh, I didn't notice it was a 3-pager. Plus it's easy, if unusual, to fake other peoples nicks on irc. Hence some caution in saying it was him for sure.
@D-livil ... I asked him to.

Yeah, I was kind of pissed of yesterday since you went on modifying my work without asking a permission or even acknowledging me of it (I would have even provided the SVG template and all if you would have asked). So yeah, sorry for being rude and all, I just had no idea packages were being distributed under such a permissive license by default. As I already stated, I just don't like doing stuff like this behind my back.
About the HydroCarbon, there are several factors I don't like. Carbon is all about gray (heh heh), so bright yellow and bright blue just don't cut it.
I know what the license means, it's just some Nokia leftovers, as you can see from the line
In short, I don't like people messing with my artistic integrity, so please at least notify me before forking my stuff.

No harm in a bit of common courtesy, manners and patience for joppu to finish his exams...
I love this theme by the way, thank you joppu, and although I'm probably on my own, I actually like the edges in multi column lists..

i really want to like this theme because it kinda looks like its cellshaded, but there is just too much dark colors on top of dark colors. grey grey grey. it looks repetitive somehow... for example the loading bar, which is dark grey with a grey bar with black text on it.
i think it needs some flashy highlights.
