I would think they would consider making an exception considering the exposure they would get by you using it as a theme. Their loss. Thanks!

IMO that's a spammy link and I had restricted it to the About page. The tone of the email soured it for me so I changed it. "Unfortunately" for theme authors, any themes uploaded to the new themes repository has to be GPL compatible. Nowhere in the GPL does it say a credit link has to be on a webpage. It's polite to leave it, but I'd rather not have the theme than display that link. The author credits were still in the style sheet which is sufficient. I don't think they realise that. PS. Great picture of Stripes. :) I liked it too, and was going to customize it by adding my own header image which merges with the rest of the theme, but I received an email from the theme author (or “distributor”, seems to be a bit unclear) who wanted the “WordPress Themes” link to the author homepage restored in the footer.
