Also interesting letter regarding themes within WP also GPLv3 which I would consider also to apply to GetSimple

@WebDevandPhoto: At least your second question seems to be answered by the GPLv3 FAQ and the second of n00dles101's link:
Yes, you can sell your theme:
  • your CSS and image files can be under any license, as long as
  • your PHP template files (and theme-specific plugins) are under the GPLv3.

As the important work when creating a theme, are images and CSS, this should be no problem.
