Sponsored themes

{ on Apr 13 }

Wordpress
Now this is a rant: against the bullshit that is going on the everbroken themeviewer.

First of all: I like to make money like everybody else, but those (sometimes) bad coded, (somehow) generic “designed” new Sponsored themes are blocking the whole themeviewer with their unholy presence, on the other hand it seems like the guys over at the themeviewer need some real pros to fix the broken thumbnails and the glitch on theme previews.

Yerday is saw a poorly coded theme uploaded several times with different headers….

UPDATE: Matt Cutts is talking at his blog seriously about sponsoring.

Now it should be all clear (?).

    Your so right. I will not use the themeviewer any more. It just sucks. And all that “sponsored-themes” thing also.
    If I want Ads on my site I’ll do theme to get some Money for me. But the most important thing I decide if i want Ads on my site.

    And then they even look butt-ugly this “sponsored-themes”…

    I completely agree with you! Why should designers who make beautiful designs (like you :) ) not be able to make money of their creative effort?

    Why can only Autocrattic be allowed to make money?
