Creating theme
When creating a theme do you always have to create a variant of a default theme.
I just got done making a theme and it was a variant of _light so some of the css changes had to be done in _light css and the index css. I was thinking I was doing something wrong.

Aa emanuele or spuds said one time. The variant gives the look and the other CSS is like a skeleton (actually can't remember how it went). You will be editing both of them to achieve what you want.

I know it is a bit over stretching you at the moment. But a bare bone / skeleton theme on which amateur theme maker can work will be good.

heh... my help on themes matters is not very helpful... lol
Anyway, the best answer I can give you about using bootstrap is the one one I posted just above, I don't have a better one.
Using bootstrap basically means entirely rewrite (or at least re-organize) the entire theme using the classes and the markup "preferred" by bootstrap...

Is it possible to create a framework theme ? That is what they asked when I asked for help from Bootstrap guys.

Well, a bootstrap-based theme is what I'm kind of doing in the other topic (I have to clean up the code and push it to a repository).
Yes, it's possible. It's a long work.
