WordPress Theme Skeleton

To make a long story short, I hate repeating myself. A lot. Every time I sit down to build a WordPress theme for a client, I end out starting the exact same way. So I decided to make a WordPress Theme skeleton. Not only does this saves me hours of time, but after months of refinement, this skeleton has brought my client themes to a whole new level. Make sure to fork me! If you do, you get a cookie.
