		<description>I&#039;m certainly not an advocate of link sponsors on themes and templates. That&#039;s just a cheap way for someone to get a link in my opinion. However, if a template designer/developer wants to include a sponsor link in their footer then who is to stop them?

I am also, however, not an advocate of removing links in the footer of someone else&#039;s work - regardless of your moral stance. If you don&#039;t like the link sponsor, don&#039;t use the theme. It really is that simple. In some cases, it may even be illegal to remove the link. I know it seems petty, but people do take it seriously.

Just my 2 cents.</description>
