09 on WordPress.com?
Several people have asked me if (and when) the WP-Andreas09 theme will be available on WordPress.com, and that is a question that I have not been able to answer. The themes that site are selected by the WordPress crew, and so far only a few themes have been accepted. I have recommended people to write a request for the theme in the WordPress.com forums, but also told them that there are naturally a lot of requests so they should not expect too much.
But I just got a link to a post about WP-Andreas09 in the forum, where WordPress founder Matt Mullenweg has replied and promised to consider WP-Andreas09 for the next set of themes that will be added. If he finds it to be suitable, it may be added on the next "Theme Friday". To stay updated about this, check out WordPress.com or look here on friday for news. I will of course also post an entry here as soon as I know if it is accepted or not.

I hope it gets in. . .I run a small blog on wp.com for a conlanging organization, and I've wanted a better template for it for a while :)

Haarball: I have not made the professional ones. They are sold through an affiliate deal with 4Templates. Isn't that clear from the description on the commercial templates page?
Aaron: I hope so too, it would give me a lot of inspiration to work with more WP themes. But it is all up to Matt, so all I can do is wait and see… ;)

Brilliant templates you've made, my fellow Scandinavian. Especially the professional ones. Had I had a bigger site with more activity and profit generating from it I'd definitely base it around one of those.
