Plus, I'm jealous of your avatar... :P
EDIT: Did I mention that I'd never heard of this rule before now?
It's entirely possible, but unlikely.

+1, maybe JBlaze (he's still on the team) can quote the related topice / rule?
We could release some small mods and/or themes with the wedge-link in the footer
AFAIK there is no rule about competitor links in mods / themes but they'll probably never approve these.

Maybe I could put the link in the AeMe footer.......
Okay, I'll just shut up :P
Okay, I could simply announce the release of Wedge in the AeMe admin area through the "latest news" box... And they can't do anything about it, it's already installed on 10k forums. That's a Trojan horse if I say so myself! :niark:
TE, I thought your picture was Snape from HP! :^^;:

That's just dumb. Looks like you've got them running scared.
But a question Pete, that after Oldies asked you to remove the image, did they just edit your profile and take it out anyway without your consent so much like they did with the begging for money links in sigs during the MOTM event. (I refused to beg for money so Thantos edited my profile and placed it in without my consent conveniently after I signed off for the night, I was swift to remove it again as soon as I signed back on)

No, I removed it, followed by my message in reply. That way they can't accuse me of refusing to comply with a request and they can't accuse me of being uncooperative, i.e. the moral ground is mine.

I wouldn't have thought so, it's more of a "just to keep them quiet for now" kind of thing to me.

No, it doesn't mean that at all, Chris. I really don't want to argue with you, I have taken the action I deem appropriate for the situation.

Yes, AeMe will be part of Wedge. I said it countless times over at AeMe's official site actually. I said I'd put an end to AeMe for SMF because I was focusing on porting it to Wedge, where it will live a new life and be used in more places than just media galleries. (I know that Pete is quite eager for me to finish the job eheh. Hopefully I'll take my chances and do it next week. I just finished committing my new default theme.)
So, Pete... What's up with the SMF team? Did they write back or do they not care about your request?
Has anyone else received complaints?

i think a direct advertisement to wedge can be considered rude, but an indirect link to the software from a developers point of view and an honorable mention of where the new software come from might alleviate said issues.
wedge, smf forum software spinoff
im not so sure the mention of wedge is the issue, its the 45000 mentions of something else that isnt smf and no honorable mention of where it originally came from.
give them credit where it is due, but state that it is a different alternative for those that wish it. dont take away from them, just add to yourself. and to be honest, carrying smf with you in the beginning will help you more than it will hurt.
