<p>Cheers Emil, I was actually considering unsubscribing myself from the list because I am getting sick of conversations like this.<br>
People have no right to call the reviewers and staff out.</p>
<p>The way I see it there are two options. </p>
<p>1. If you consider your theme worthy enough to break the rules, ask for an exception to them and abide by the admins decision. </p>
<p>2. Don't submit your theme.</p>

<br>Those special cases aren't necessary for the functioning of the theme their only purpose is to brand their theme.<br>
<br>I asked for an exception on base64encode as my themes import/export function depends on it. I never got any exception.<br><br> <br>This thread is about double standards and favoritism<br><br>1. You yourself pointed that page lines clearly violates the GPL terms. Yet they continue to be in the repository. While my theme was suspended with in one day of notice.<br>

<br>4. How can you allow themes to rebrand wordpress login page without user consent?<br><br>5. We are not allowed to hot link images on the options page because of privacy reasons.<br> How can you trust the developer in not using the hot linked images for tracking?<br>
If you trust him, why not trust others?<br><br><br>All I'm asking for is fair rules and transparency.
