I think i added mine about a week ago and a new theme has been added by someone else since then.

Im not angry at all but a PM saying that this theme is not going to be added would have been nice

I too have uploaded themes that haven't been included in the gallery. Maybe Esato admin filter out themes that don't meet a certain quality standard? I dunno. If that's the case, it's no bad thing. Some other sites accept any old crap and their galleries are full of really poor offerings, some not much better than girlie wallpapers.

Maybe it's just pot luck. I must admit, I've seen some very ordinary themes on Esato. I'm not the most gifted themer but my themes are generally better than some that appear in the gallery.

So far, I've only managed to get one theme into the gallery (Egypt) http://www.esato.com/logos/colour/k800themes.php?p=206 .
Most of my themes are of a similar standard.

It would be nice to see a contribution from a site administrator on this thread.

I'm sure there's a logical explanation which will answer our questions.

Themes may be rejected of several reasons. Without being related to the themes mentioned in this thread, I can list a few.

In order of reason to reject the theme:
- Copyright issues: Movie characters, cartoons, Football club themes etc.
- Size of the theme: 1 MB themes with only two images in it will not be accepted. In general: it is more likely that smaller themes will be made public.
- Lack of, or lousy images in the menu elements.
- Too many of the motive already: A famous Indian actress must have been uploaded 30-40 times.
- Graphic too lousy
- Not of general interest. E.g a theme with pictures of my dog, sister, father, old car.
- Porn

I try to validate the themes 3-4 days a week. It sometime happens that I miss a theme or two. If so, please send me PM with info about the date you uploaded the theme, and I will take a closer look at it.

The theme section is not connected with the Esato forum. Everyone can upload. So it is not possible to send a PM to the uploader of a rejected theme

BTW. Moderators do not approve themes. It's only me

Ah, right. That's cleared that up then. Now we know what to avoid.

Some of my themes were Everton F.C. However, I have never heard of any football clubs enforcing copyright over their images, club crests, etc. If anything, they're usually grateful for the exposure!

But it's your site and you set the rules. That's ok by me. I posted my football themes on an alternative site, where they have been quite popular (with Evertonians!)

Leeching is a common problem on all sites. I'm sure that if you see any leeched themes, they will be removed if you inform the site's admin.

Well. I have.

The Clubs are not grateful for the exposure. Do you have any source for this statement.
