I think you should be okay. As far as I can tell, phpBB itself is licensed under GPL, and so are its Themes. I can't find the default Theme specifically, but the ones I checked here are GPL:<div><a href="http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styles-2/?from=submenu">http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styles-2/?from=submenu</a></div>

I have a question about the quote below:<br>
<br>
"Trademark<br>
<br>
Themes MUST NOT clone the design of past or present web site.<br>
Themes that clone non-website designs will be considered on a<br>
case-by-case basis."<br>
<br>
My theme, propress is a theme based on the default theme used in phpBB<br>
along with a page in the admin area to allow people to set it so that<br>
it look the same as their phpBB based forum.<br>
<br>
Would I be breaking the rules regarding this?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
