I'm a developer trying to strengthen my design skills. The problem lies with my expertise being in code versus design. So my question is, when creating a theme to sell, and the focus is the functionality and features of the theme - are the graphics in a theme (whether it's Tumblr/WordPress etc.) all created by the person who made the theme?

Or can I use stock images/free graphics for themes that I build and then sell?

Thanks for any help in advance.

As most of my site designs don't rely on graphics that much, I mostly do those myself. However when more sophisitcated artwork is needed I usually work together with a designer.
I think it's always a good idea for developers to have some basic understanding for design. For stock images, make sure to always check the licenses of the artwork you want to purchaes / resell. Some allow it, some don't.

The legal answer is: it depend on the usage licenses of the artwork you are using. Odds are few licenses will allow you to resell the work.
