Listen up, n00bies!! I’ll give you some advice! :P

Alright, I’m not asking you to upload any super duper professional themes, BUT I’m not going to stand all that crap that some of you (you know very well who you are) upload to this site! Please, only upload unique themes!! Today I spent a few hours removing all of the crappy themes (that didn’t have a preview). Now I hope that at least the first 4 pages look nice and clean. =)

Also, many thanks to those who commented on my previous entry! It’s nice to hear your opinions! And yes, I’m still not sure if I want to review each theme manually, because I know that many people like this site because the themes are uploaded automatically. I think I’ll just leave it as it is (for now) and remove the ones I don’t like. I believe that would be pretty good. And I’ll try to log in more often! *promise* =)

Oh, and by the way, the upload page will be down for a few days, I need to test something!

Thank you Kate! I too hate the deluge of crappy designs which keep popping up on all the WP theme sites. :)

Hey Kate,

Any idea when you’ll have the form back up? I have a few themes to submit (with previews). Thanks!

Uhh, give me one more day, okay? ^^ I have my German test tomorrow, so I really don’t have time to work on the site. By the way, the previews will be set up on my own server, so there’s no need for you to submit them.

Geez, just noticed that the new version of WP is available.. Grr, I only upgraded like a month ago! *annoyed*

Great site Kate, I love it!

I have a small suggestion/request, I don’t know if it’s possible but many of the themes have sponsor links. I understand sponsorship helps cover the design costs…but there are some sponsors that would not be appropriate for all sites.

Would it be possible for the designers to offer alternatives to leaving the sponsor links, such as allowing them to be removed for a fee?

Thanks for such an awesome site!

Quick question, are there any themes you suggest that are similar to that PR5 directory you have under links? …something focused on the search.

Hmm, you could try looking directly on the designer’s website askgraphics.com Maybe they have something similar.

Nice job Kate with the cleaning up some shitty themes that everyone hates. :) Btw, why for Demo not to use the uploaders make them to worry to host their themes and make a demo there.
