Child themes take a parent theme and modify them in such a way that when the original theme is updated it can simply be replaced, and modifications are not lost. In this way, when Thematic is updated, Murkymatic should still function.
The intention is that Murkymatic will make use of variant.css, a user-supplied stylesheet, to make further customisations. In this way, Murkymatic can be updated without affecting the user modifications.
Note – murkymatic is no longer used on this site. Instead, I use murkytheme – which shares some code, but was written from scratch, nicking bits from murkymatic
