I even compared the styles.css files and found them strikingly similar, enough to not know which one to use. (Don't want to reward an uncredited derivation.) Trusting him to be truthful, I'm glad Vladimir jumped in here to clarify. @Alex (#21) No, you’re not the only one to think that was strange.

First thanks all for all the positive feedback, you've been wonderful. Jeffro2pt0: Yea the site might have been unavailable shortly this day due to massive amounts of downloads I think I went over my quota :) Alex: You are right, I have hired Magnus (the author of PortaitPress) to do the initial design and I took it from there.

I admit the colors are different, but the layout and many elements look quite identical. At the Amazing Grace website, there is no hint that the theme is a variation of another theme.

I actually think you should give that as opposed to the download link. I, as I'm sure many theme designers do, provide vital information that users need to read before downloading.

I too enjoy this new format. You even present validation stats for those that want them. As the others have said, thumbnail is not required, but would be icing on the cake.

Generally if something displays right in Firefox it should display right in other browsers using Gecko. Anyway, I like the new format of theme release posts, it's much better and readers can learn more about themes without having to click links first. Doesn’t Flock use Gecko?
