The "spam link" he's referring to is the one to the package parser. It appears that domain has been cyber-squatted.

I don't see a problem with the screenshots you've included. They aren't used in the readme or the mod, but they are useful to those who download it, and they don't take up much space at all.

Actually you need to check all your packages. As for unused files, basically, if package-info.xml does not use them, they need removed. No mods should ever be approved if they contain extra files. The spam link is under "SMF Package Parser". It is considered spam because it does not go to the right page.

the 'spam link' is being updated on all my mods right now and the screen shots aren't a big deal as smf approved them so they seem to be ok with it ;)

Then why did they reject mine that had one?

Extra files == bloat. Simple as that.

maybe your mod wasn't good enough? i don't know but i have 8 mods and most have screen shots and they accepted them all...

live627

Double standard. They shouldn't have done approved ANY of those mods then.

And my mod does much more than yours.

Not with you personally. I do have a problem with poorly coded mods that give a bad example to the community.

What I would like to know, is how this is any different than Advanced Footer Mod. AFM is optional, for each link, individually, too; in addition to some other toggle options.

I see this mod as duplicating an already existing mod.

Advanced Footer Mod allows you to enable/disable them this is just for people who want them removed as the Advanced Footer Mod is a little overkill if that's all you want to do

You can disable all of them in a couple of clicks, and if you ever want any back, simply uncheck the toggle you checked previously.

Broken on SMF 2.0 Final.  The installer can't find the original SMF footer.

How about you just modify index.template.php? Piece of cake to remove them.
