 * I have a big question and its been debated before and the answers are split. 
   I have tried contacting the theme developer to no avail. I am talking about the
   theme The Hunter 1.3 by FlexiThemes
    [ here](https://flexithemes.com/thehunter-wordpress-theme/)
 * I have done some heavy and (tooting my own horn) quite amazing transformations
   to this theme, such as [My site here](http://www.roatv.com/) and [This one](http://powersurgemedia.com/demosite/)
 * So the big question is once a theme reaches a point that it is no longer the 
   same theme then are credits still due? At one point does one begin to call it
   their design? I dont want to discredit anyone but I would like to have credit
   for all my hard work put into my designs.
 * When one says design, are they speaking of the theme look itself or the php template
   work or the whole ball of wax.?
