Not sure if nemesis or symisun-03 is the main template to start with?

With the risk of asking something plain stupid.......which of both included themes should I use as my main template?
I bought a skin which I am going to convert to Cotonti but I want to be sure that I am using the most complete theme which is provided by default as my start. Just so I know all hooks/tags are in there and so preventing any issues with an incomplete skin leaving me wondering why things do not work the way they should.

I checked the file dates but those are all the same so I can not really see which were updated last. I can of course start comparing each of those included tpl's but if they are not the same I still do not know which is the latest version surprise

PS: sorry, I can not share the skin after converting. The license is only for 1 website.

No doubt, start with Nemesis. It is not so fancy as Symisun, but it was just made for this: to be a base for others and provide fallback templates.

May the Source be with you!

@foxhound:

Nemesis is indead the best theme to start from, but:
Nemesis does not include all tpl, some files like tpl's for pages are in modules\page\tpl

So if you don't find the tpl. Look in the modules or plugin dir.

Yeah, thanks for the extra info. I already figured that out though but I am sure others might wonder about the "missing" tpl's at first like I did some time ago wink
