    Does the smells like facebook theme infringe copyright?

    I understand that it obviously uses none of the FB source code which I have no doubt would be protected intellectual property but what of the layout, colours and themes. Admittedly, there are no actual Facebook logos within the theme but they look so darn close.

    I would sincerely love to use this theme for a site so I hope it doesn’t but I don’t want to go building a site around a theme that I may have to pull should a ‘cease and desist’ order end up in my mailbox from the Facebook legal team.

    Your thoughts please? Any IP lawyers have anything to say about this?
