Copyright notice! You mean credits? If so they can be visible and no<br>
need to include them in options.<br>

I have build a theme with an option to disable Copyright notice<br>
(which appears at the bottom of theme). By default the copyright<br>
notice is visible and via the option it can be disabled or hidden<br>
manually.<br>

I am just confused - Is this right or not?<br>
