Hello Lioz,
I would like to help by working on a RTL version of your great theme, kindly let me know if you mind or not as I would need to flip a lot of images and probably the banners in addition to some css modifications.

Sincerely,
Liquid Crystal

I have no problems, whatever you think is better, since you are more involved in themes than I am. If you think this is the best way of doing in, then let's do it.
What kind of help you need from my side. As of now, I have played a little with the style-rtl.css file, but I'm not sure if the changes I made are the proper/cleanest way of doing it. I might also need some help from your side on certain regions of the theme.

BTW, what is the license of the images in the banner folder? Can I flip them horizontally?

If you don't mind, I'm facing an issue with the blocks, I can't seem to RTL them properly. For example the defaultblock has the text correctly from right to left but the bullets are not located properly, they are still on the left!
Same thing happens with the loginblock. Any idea what part of the css should I replace/modify?

Liquid - That is a one cool try. Keep us posted or if you make another theme based on this one, then too we would like to stay connected to see the progress of your efforts.

i managed to make 2 sub-themes, The first one with center content and the second one with both sidebars on the left. I'm testing them but i think that the will be released soon. I'm also working to make a liquid version, but it still needs more code right now.

Lios _ you may also want to take a look at four seasons. Another very good theme. Ability to configure menu to left, right, center will make you very popular. Your theme is already one of the hottest. Another idea would be to assign pictures to primary and secondary menu tabs instead of tabs. I also think the number of people on 5.x are so many times more than 6.x that it hard not to look at the existing installed base. I realized the issue moments after I launched my own website on 6.x and feel lazy to reenter all the pages!

Just some thoughts, for what they are worth.

Let me know if you want help documenting or something like that.

Thank you garg_art for your encouragement, I'm trying my best although I'm not a programmer by any means :). This is an old screenshot and the theme looks much better now, at least RTL wise :) except for few glimpses here and there which I hope others, especially Lioz can help with. I will be posting a screenshot of the latest updates in a day or two after I finish more stuff but I gurantee you the style-rtl.css file is way dirty, I just took the standard style.css and add/removed stuff to/from it as this is my first try ever in playing with such css files and themes.

Lioz, I really appreciate your great work and effort in building and creating such great themes, your help is mandatory in making this RTL based theme a success!
