(I totally posted this on PB support as well - so if you are having deja vu, that's why!)
More of a general theme question... how do you personally start a new theme?
Do you use a blank template (either that you made or someone else made?)
Do you start from the pb default?
Do you start with a concept either drawn or photoshopped?
Or do you just play around till something works?
Mostly curious to others' processes, hoping it will spark some inspiration for myself and others that may be new to the process

A lot of times I will just randomly see something small, just one idea from somewhere else, and it will give me the idea on how to add stuff (improve?) to my liking and my needs. So then I will try mock it up quickly in my head of what could be done, and if I can make a full mock up in my head within the next day or two, I will eventually put it to design. Even though I have the idea in my head, the layout etc will change lots though, because I will always get bored easily of the ways i have done them lol.

This has been my problem for all my designs, no matter what I try.
I have an idea in my mind but some times can not for the life of me get it how I want it, even if it's something "simple". The amount of themes I have abandoned because of it is unreal haha.
I will finally get to something I am happy with but a lot of times it's because I want to finish the work, so I "settle" on something, then by the end of it, I probably dislike it and only continue because I started and WAS loving the idea(s) for it.
