Designers: What do you do when you find a forum that removed your copyright?
Not to start fights with anyone here, BUT... I feel you are jumping to conclusions voronv.
Sure by placing a link back to his site people might visit it and consider ordering something custom off him. But guess what? It takes time to create custom work, that's what he charges for. And yes copyright removal, but that's more of a donation.
Google for instance offers free services, like GMAIL etc. and guess what? They are making $. They place ads in those services to fund the free service. They would go broke if they offered an ad free e-mail service, you'd have to pay to use it. So if you don't want to pay you have to accept the ads. The same goes with these free public themes, if you want them, you have to cope with the copyright link.
And once again, I don't have anything against you, I just have a different opinion than you, and I think the example I mentioned got my point across.
