Earlier this evening I posted about being called a liar and faker over this whole thing with the Wordpress Theme Viewer screenshots I had posted. I’ll take a lot of crap but the one thing I won’t take is being called a liar or have anyone think that I would fake anything for the sake of few stupid page views. While it was good to see that several people came to my defense; and I truly appreciate that, it is not quite the same as being able to produce the evidence on your own.
One of the points that was made about my screenshots was that there was no URL address visible. Well that was just stupidity on my part but additionally if one was to go to all the effort of faking something like this Photoshopping a URL would be nothing and I thought that would have been a logical assumption - I was wrong. So to satisfy that question here is a screenshot taken some 10 minutes ago (click for larger view)
Another point was that there was no source code - either the CSS file or the page source - again my error. Here is a partial of the CSS file
* { margin: 0; padding: 0; } body { font-size: 62.5%; color: #333; background: #fff url( wrc-images/leftbg7.jpg ) top left no-repeat fixed; } .hidden { display: none; } .visible { } .thumb a { border: 1px solid #ccc; display: block; padding: 5px; } .thumb a:hover { background: #ff6; border: 1px solid #ff6; } .thumb a img { border: none; } .thumb.current a { background: #ff6; border: 1px solid #ff6; } .pageNav { clear: both; display: inline; width: 100%; } .pageNav.top { } .pageNav.bottom { display: block; } .pageNav .previous, .pageNav .next { float: left; margin: 10px 0; width: 25%; } .pageNav .previous { text-align: left; } .pageNav .next { text-align: right; } .pageNav .jump { float: left; margin-top: 10px; width: 50%; text-align: center; } .pageNav { font-size: 0.8em; } .pageNav .jump .current { font-weight: bold; padding: 0 2px; } .pageNav .jump a { border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 1px 4px 2px 4px; } .pageNav .jump .blank { padding: 1px 0px 1px 4px; } .pageNav .jump span a:hover { background: #f60; color: #fff; border-color: #ff6; }
And here is a partial of the page source code
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd”> <html xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml”> <head profile=”http://gmpg.org/xfn/11″> <meta http-equiv=”Content-Type” content=”text/html; charset=utf-8″ /> <title>Theme Browser</title> <style type=”text/css”> @import “http://themes.wordpress.net/wrc-style.css”; </style> <script type=”text/javascript”> //<![CDATA[ var isFilmStripView = new RegExp( '&view_type=filmstrip' ); if( !isFilmStripView.test( location.href ) && top != self ) { top.location = self.document.location; } //]]> </script> </head> <body> <div id=”wrap”> <div id=”header”> <h1><a href=”http://themes.wordpress.net”>Theme Browser</a></h1> <ul id=”mainNav”> <li><a href=”http://themes.wordpress.net”>Home</a></li> <li><a href=”http://themes.wordpress.net/wrc-blog/about”>About</a></li> <li><a href=”http://themes.wordpress.net/wrc-blog/feedback”>Feedback</a></li> <li><a href=”http://themes.wordpress.net/wrc-blog/contact”>Contact</a></li> <li><a href=”http://themes.wordpress.net/?item_type=search”>Search</a></li> </ul>
I have also attached both files to this post for your downloading and perusing pleasure so I finally hope that this closes the matter for good and any doubt about my ethics is equally answered - if not well then there is nothing I can do any further to change minds.

I've emailed you privately. I've managed to come across the design as well. I've screencapped it, copied the source code from the main page, and saved the stylesheet as well.

Also, with regards to Lloyd's post, Matt Thomas is currently doing the design for WordPress.org and may not have mentioned this.

If possible, can you post the full URLs to the CSS and image files please?
Also, do you have any cookies for themes.wordpress.net?

It personally looks to me like it's just a test, as it's not hosted on the WordPress.com servers.
