 * Or you could simply make your own theme.

 * You can remove links from themes (that part is allowed) but the copyright on 
   that work does not belong to you.
 * You can modify and distribute themes that you have made changes to but you cannot
   represent someone else’s work as your own. The credit for their work has to remain
   intact.
