    Thanks for that list. It will be useful.<br>

    One thought though, if it isn&#39;t approved, and this one is over four
    years old, one would think the slot would be open. Are &quot;never
    approved themes&quot; never removed?<div><div class="h5"><br>

            was not approved due to some problem with the name. I called
            it &quot;BirchWare Kiss&quot;, which turned out to be a bad idea. So I
            fixed it (removed the &quot;BirchWare&quot; part) and tried to upload
            it again. I got this:<br>
            &quot;There is already a theme called &#39;kiss&#39; by a different
            author. Please change the name of your theme in style.css
            and upload it again.&quot;<br>
            <br>
            Is it because my previous upload?<br>
            I checked the Free Themes Directory, <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/search.php?q=kiss" target="_blank">http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/search.php?q=kiss</a><br>
            &quot;No results found.&quot;<br>
            <br>
            I searched in other places, then this:<br>
            &quot;{18} All Tickets By Milestone (Including closed) (6460
            matches)&quot;<br>
            <a href="http://themes.trac.wordpress.org/report/18?max=10000" target="_blank">http://themes.trac.wordpress.org/report/18?max=10000</a><br>
            There I found just one, my previous attempt:<br>
            &quot;#6211 THEME: BirchWare Kiss - 0.99&quot;<br>
            <br>
            So, can&#39;t I upload the fixed version? Seems strange.<br>
            <br>
            If there is another theme with the name &quot;Kiss&quot;, how can I
            find it?<br>
            (If I have to rename my theme again, I want to know that the
            name is available before I start changing things.)
