Hey guys. We’re currently in need of submissions to our “Free File of the Month” program. For those unfamiliar, we choose one item each month, which is featured on the front page of the site.

Free File

This can be a great a way to promote your username, other items, and give back to the community.

How Long Will My Item Be Free?

Only for the given month. If you volunteer, we’ll make a note on your theme’s page noting users that it’s currently the free item of the month. Once the month has ended, that notice will be removed.

I’m Interested! Where Do I Volunteer?

Fantastic. Simply fill out the following form, and that’s it!

Questions?

Leave a comment, and we’ll respond ASAP .

this seems really great. It’ll attract many authors and the authors themselves can share with others. I might consider this hen i get more templates on here.

Honestly… a whole month? That’s a month worth of sales… Hopefully they’ll be enough authors willing to do this.

Maybe you should offer the template for free one day each month, and whoever gets it keeps it, while others that are too late have to buy it.

There seems to be a loophole in this somewhere, or maybe I’m just paranoid.

That’s nice thing we can see that a marketplace is offering similar to other stock sites offers… but if the stats are visible i the authors statements then that wud be appreciated. BTW from which date this service is going to start.

@Fandomfilms: Yes, you do. On the form it asks which file you want to submit.
