I'm very excited about it. But it takes time and the right people working on all the details to make it secure, easily searchable, and all the features people want. I'm just as frustrated as you are, but stay tuned. Exciting news on the way soon. @ thrind:

Lorelle, if you know these guys, please just suggest that they pull the trigger on it. t.wp.net is a failure and it is causing me no end of headaches with people asking for support for themes that are FAR out of date.

I do know that many have written about them when they've found them, so search the web for a specific Theme you've found to see what's been said about it. Most of the Themes on the WordPress Theme Viewer are good, and most will work with the latest version of WordPress. Check the dates they were uploaded to ensure they were uploaded in 2007 not before so they should work with recent versions. I know it's a problem. I hope this will be resolved soon. @ KAPS:

I for one have no idea what to look for as far as hidden code and whatnot. The more I get involved in WP and blogging, these articles keep popping up, but I haven't got anything specific.

Theme security issues are starting to pop up as designers incorporate code beyond a Plugin into their Themes. And if you have ever downloaded a free WordPress Theme and thought you were getting something wonderful, only to find out it is stuffed with hidden and unwanted ads and links - that's enough to really piss some people off. They scream at WordPress while it is the Theme designer or provider who does the evil. On this issue, the WordPress Community spoke and does not want such Themes. "Best Themes" is subjective. The ugliest Theme can be lovely if it has no evil lurking under the hood. And WordPress is not the only one with security issues. As blog programs become more popular, just like email and other web programs, they become a target for time-wasters who want to do evil. The issue before us of the "closed" WordPress Theme Viewer continues to plague designers and WordPress users. That is the issue, not the debate over who has the better Themes. Having it closed to uploading and fixing of old or flawed Themes hurts everyone and gives the Theme Viewer a bad reputation when its purpose is to provide secure Themes. Sad. @ digitalproductsreview:

Therefore it is not an issue. This is akin to saying "Everyone Else Sucks. We have the Best Themes. But you can't upload. Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah" Plus, the last time my blog got hacked, it was from a security issue in Wordpress. Never had an issue with a theme. Matt,
