WPCandy releases a starter theme: that is, a basic, barebone theme with commonly used template tags and the usual theme files already in place, ready to be used as a base for your own theme. I like it, and for details sake there are a bunch of other starter/framework themes you can check, most notably plainbeta’s Whiteboard, Darren Beale’s WordPress Naked, Elliot Jay Stocks’s Starkers, and ThemeShaper’s Thematic.

Don’t forget The Sandbox that Thematic is also built from, for a nice theme starter.
