When posting a theme that you have hosted outside of BlackberryOS, just copy/paste link inside the body of the post
o When posting OTA/wireless download, you will need to post your .jad OTA link that is HOSTED on your own website where you store OTA theme files. If you do not have your own website and are in need of OTA hosting, please send a PM to me with the subject of OTA HOST, and I will send you directions on how to get the Download link
o Linking to external theme website is allowed ONLY if the site does NOT require registration for the download and the site is a theme ONLY site

• You must be the maker of the theme you are posting
• Preview threads are allowed, those threads will be open for two weeks and you need to provide the download links for the Beta testers, after two weeks the thread will be closed, if you need more time during the beta testing process please contact any of the Team Members via PM explaining the reason why you need more time, and how much time do you need, we will discuss and give you an answer.
• If you would like to keep your theme preview as a PRIVATE BETA testing process you need to indicate it in the OP including the number of beta testers needed, above rule applied as well.
• Donation/Buy Now buttons may be inserted into FIRST post of thread. Anything after the first post (OP) is considered spam
If the above rules & guidelines are not met, your theme will be deleted from the forum and a PM will be sent to you regarding the rules violation.
• Whether the theme is paid or free w/donation, is developer’s choice and no bashing will be allowed in regards to this matter.
If the above rules & guidelines are not met, you will be notified to correct your post, if you fail to make the required adjustments then you theme may be deleted from the forum and a PM will be sent to you regarding the rules violation.
