    If you see a theme on somebody else’s website, and you like it (assuming it’s open source) is there a way to download it even if they don’t provide it for you? Maybe by just viewing the Page Source? Or do you need them to send you the theme folder?

    Thanks!

    Oh sure, there are ways. But what you really need to do is simply ASK them if they would mind you using the theme. At worst they’ll say no. At best, they’ll send you a zip file.

    Well, the stylesheet is obviously easy to get by just looking at the source. But if they’re not willing to send you all the PHP files, then you’re going to have to “reverse-engineer” the thing by starting from the final output and figuring out where the template tags and other stuff goes.
