files anwyay?)
- Theme is not empty

currently scanned)

- Must include screenshot.png
- Must include a Name
- Must include a Description
- Must include Tags

- Must include Version
- Must not have same URL for Author URI and Theme URI.
- Must not have any thumbs.db files.
- Must not have _notes file/directory
