As far as I'm aware, with Wordpress and themes you really don't. I've never seen anyone split up their CSS/Images from the Theme code and do it that way.
That's why you don't really see the Wordpress themers making much of a stink about it anymore. It's been hashed and rehashed and the people in charge of WP have drawn their line in the sand. So people are either able to play by their rules or not at all.
If it was a HUGE issue to all the various theme companies they'd just come up with some other way of making a living. It makes more sense to play by the rules. If you've got something worth buying, the majority of people are going to buy it and a small few will go searching on that site I showed you.Comment

BUt that conflicts with everything all the GFY experts are saying..
Some are saying by the very nature of it being WP.. it inherits GPL and none of these licences have a leg to stand on. At least thats my understanding.
I think candy said earlier in icq "if you sell a WP theme/plugin to the public, after the first sale it is concidered GPL and can be freely traded"
All I want is the facts.Comment

I don't believe that is an exact quote from me...I don't think "freely traded" is something I said. And I don't save ICQ transcripts anymore, so I can't check for sure.
If they are releasing it under the GPL, yes once it is out there it is out there and anyone is FREE to do with it whatever they choose...as that is what the GPL is all about. That is definitely something that I would have said
No wrong info has been given to her. It's all coming direct from the GPL website and Wordpress.
You have done nothing but confuse matters from the get go and have given NOT ONE bit of information to backup what you say. Simple as that.
If we are wrong, it should be easy for you to prove it.Last edited by candyflip; 06-16-2012, 11:27 AM.Comment

@GW - To put it simply, all php code integrated with WordPress (as a plugin, or a theme) is required to also inherit the GPL.
GPL does not automatically apply to any images, css, html, etc... Many premium themes are "split-licensed" in that the GPL applies to the php and they can choose any type of license they want with how they choose to handle the non-php assets.
Unless you also release your non-php assets under GPL, you still retain control over who you choose to license them to. It does not give everyone else the right to give your stuff away.- Free Premium Domain Lists and Tools at Clickmojo.com
