I started playing around with the cutline theme http://cutline.tubetorial.com/ and I ended up changing it completelly ...
I am thinking if people like it I might release it as a free template on the wordpress.org site ... that is why I need your opinions / likes / dislikes / bug reports ...

Thanks for the comments everyone,
Three column designs as Olaf explains are very useful with two columns either advertisement go very far down the page or the navigation does with three you can keep both reasonably high up the page
Olaf I did a lot of tweaking on the theme its not only the design ... but why you say this about releasing it ? ..... 90% of the wordpress themes at http://themes.wordpress.net look identical to something else anyway ...

A wordpress theme is often not only some graphics, in my opinion you should release a theme as your own if the whole theme is made by yourself. but you're most of the themes are not very unique

Quite frankly, I did not change too much the php code in the theme nor did I write any new php function,
but I had to rearrange the places of lots of php code, html, and css ...
and honestly does it look at all like its inspiration/predecessor ? http://cutline.tubetorial.com/ could you have recognized that its actually derived from there with heavy tweaking if I did not tell you in the first place ?

I don't think that there is any connection between your theme and the original, but I guess in your download page you should write that you started from this.

yep like "I was inspired by theme..."
but thats all up to you, check if the code is very different from the orig. default theme. if not that take it as your own work. At the end its all based on the license from wordpress
