kelo-lt theme removed due to legal permission
I had to remove the kelo-lt theme because the person who claimed to be the creator of the design and supplied some pdf files and design ideas to let me create a public available SMF theme was not the original creator of the design!
I got contacted by Andrew Ellis (http://www.1three.com/) the original creator of the "kelo-lt" design who is a well respected member of the deviantART community and by looking at his portfolio it is clearly that he is the one who created this design.
I apologise! I respect others work and had no intention to steal anything. I've always given credits if other's work is used in my themes (wow-dk, smooth-lt, ...) in the past and have always asked for permission to use it.
I am sorry!
panic I have split this and renamed it to suit the post better :)
We all hope you can get this all sorted.
Does this mean it's illegal to use, also? :O
simply yes you could get into trouble for using it.
Oh damn it. I love this theme :(
you gonna need to hope panic gets permission then :)
Is that probable? ???
i am not sure sorry
The copyright holder does acknowledge that it would be futile to find every user using the theme so it'll be your call to make.
Hi,
I am in email contact with Andrew (the original designer) and have asked him if it would be possible to get the permission or buy the design (if I can afford it). I'd fully understand if he says no after all. So lets see. I'll keep you updated.
Until then using the kelo-lt is indeed illegal and can get you into trouble! Please switch to another theme and respect Andrew's (copy)rights.
Again, I apologise!

Marking this as solved as it isn't for support :). Great theme. Really hope you get permission!
