			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My husband works hard on his themes and usually the graphics as well, but this time I did the graphics for a theme&#8230;Pinup Meets Grunge. In less than 1 month (22 days to be exact), Pinup Meets Grunge was downloaded 1100 times off of the WordPress.org themes directory. Today an email comes&#8230;Pinup Meets Grunge has been suspended&#8230;why&#8230;because they received &#8220;an email complaining that the theme ran against the no adult/mature themes rule for the directory.&#8221; To me &#8221;an email&#8221; means 1&#8230;hmmm&#8230;1 vs. 1100 downloads, that just doesn&#8217;t add up. <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-740" title="themes_download" src="http://buynowshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/themes_download.png" alt="themes_download" width="531" height="237" /></p>
<p> I&#8217;m a 50 year old mother of 2 with 1 grandchild, I like art, I especially like 40&#8242;s and 50&#8242;s Pinup art, Nose-art of the old fighter planes. I like swing and Jazz, the shoes and hairstyles of that era. So why was my theme suspended. Can we say small minds? It&#8217;s 2009&#8230;get with the plan, there was nothing wrong with my theme, Wordpress.org approved it and then less than 1 month later they said &#8221;while it isn&#8217;t obvious and over the top adult/mature (like a theme with pornography in it), I do think it&#8217;s fairly suggestive and trying to push where the line is for adult/mature in the theme directory.&#8221; I guess they wouldn&#8217;t know art if it jumped up and bit them in the&#8230;So I guess if someone were to make a theme honoring the art of that era or the nose-art fighter planes of that era, it will not get accepted. Or how about honoring the Miss America, Miss Universe pageants? Oh and lets not even think about making a theme for the swimming competitions/synchronized swimming or even the gymnastics of the Olympic games&#8230;because the way they dress it might be adult/mature&#8230;give me a break.</p>
<p>Powers that be at WordPress.org answer me this? Where are the rules for the &#8220;adult/mature themes rule for the directory&#8221;. I have been all over your site, using this search word and that search word and I can&#8217;t find anything relating to the types of graphics you can use in a theme. Once again, you approved the theme and then you get 1 email and suspend it&#8230;where does the censorship or should I say favoritism end?</p>
<p>WordPress.org, shame on you for taking a piece of art and turning it into something dirty&#8230;shame on you!</p>
<p>For those of you who would still like to download Pinup Meets Grunge, you may do so here at our site. <a class="downloadlink" href="http://buynowshop.com/wp-downloads/pinup-meets-grunge.zip" title="Version1.1.1 downloaded 266 times" >Pinup Meets Grunge (266)</a></p>
<p>So you see WordPress.org, my theme is not dead, it just moved to a better address. <img src='http://buynowshop.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
