New Wordpress Theme Directory
Screenshot - wordpress.org
Finally It’s been resolved. We all know that wordpress has a theme directory at “themes.wordpress.net” but it has stopped accepting themes months ago. When this happened, people started releasing their themes on their web site which made it hard for people to find new themes.
Wordpress just made an annoucement about their new wordpress theme directory. It’s under “extend” umbralla at wordpress dot org.
The new wordpress theme directory is “http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/“. Upload has been made easy as well. It’s working too!!!. Until now, you would have to mail a moderator and if they approve your request, which they never did, you could upload your wordpress theme.
All you have to do is to register at wordpress.org then you will be able to upload your theme as a .zip archieve. Once it gets approved, you will receive an email for further instructions. For more information on this, take a look at this post at Wordpress Dev Blog.
Just a quick note, I’ll be uploading tenthblog’s mini design from last year. I need to update couple of things before I upload. So stay tuned.

Wordpress requires you to have gravatar support. Gravatar is globally recognized avatars. You got to have them in comments. Just go to the address they gave you, simple copy and paste the function to your comment loop and it should get approved.
