Thank you for comment.
3. Fuck no. Faster for me to build a custom site than to wrangle with someone's theme that's been built for the lowest common denominator. // I understand what are you saying, but sometimes for me it's faster to just buy a theme and set up everything (for example I had one friend who needed small webshop for hand made stuff) then to code everything from ground. What worries me is when making portfolio is it ok to put website that use bought theme?
