    Actually with the nightly builds (WP 1.5) the Kubrick theme is the default, and the link to the author has been removed. Scoble didn't remove it, it's simply not there....at least it wasn't in the 1/21/05 build I downloaded the other day.

    Thank you - that's good to know. I guess now I don't have to worry about breaking my theme when I upgrade, but at the same time it sucks to go from having one of the nicest looking (IMHO) WordPress sites to one that looks like a standard out of the box site.

    All in all, I think it's a smart move to use Kubrick as the default style. It surprises me that Michael Heilemann's credit has been removed though!

    Actually it's a standard practice. Once the theme comes packaged with the software the credits are removed. WordPress can be used for business purposes and out of the box, the link should not be there, but it is in the code which matters.

    Your theme shouldn't break when you upgrade because 1.5 accepts both theme sets. However, if you want to move to the new version (which is lovely - not having to worry about the theme breaking when upgrading) you need to save your stylesheet, sidebar and header graphic. I "think" there are some tutorials on this but if not, if you need help send me an email and I'd be happy to try and help. It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it. :)
