I'm quite looking forward to putting it out there in the WordPress ecosystem.

To be honest, the amount of work I knew it would be if I did it properly was one of the major factors I haven't released one before this.

The way I do my own theme is copy kubrick and then each file I work on I strip down to the bare PHP and start again. As I'm doing this I find that I will just delete things I never use just to tidy the place up. Things like comments being closed or password protected posts I completely take out of the code because I just never use them. This is really bad if I'd ever want to realease a theme. Sometimes I come accross a time when I do want to realease one but quickly dismiss it as being way too much work. I’m working on a new theme for myself right now.

I hacked the shit out of my Chapstick theme, and then proceeded to release it. There were so many errors it wasn't even funny. Luckily "function_exists" cut down on alot of time that would have been otherwise wasted. Can't wait to see the theme! I never thought I would say this, but I know exactly what you mean.

That one's a lifesaver. /me gets back to work Well, thankfully, a lot of plugin dependencies can be eradicated via PHP’s function_exists function. That one’s a lifesaver.
