Looks great, but you already know that – just out of curiosity, is there any credit to the original design given in the files?
Isn’t this just the Executive theme by StudioPress with BuddyPress functionality thrown in?

Looks like it to me.
Wow Brian, seems imitation (or should we say “rip-off”) should flatter you.
Thanks for the reply on Twitter. Just a reminder that when design is offered as GPL, it needs to be distributed with the same license.
It’s released under GPL and we’ve got a note in the source of all the sites that inspired this release.
All good then – just making sure then as I don’t know the license that you release your products under. Appreciate the attentiveness.
Just so you know and it’s transparent the following is in the style.css file:
The CSS, XHTML and design is released under GPL:

Will these themes still work with Buddypress 1.2?
