Just found this out, and thought I should share this with all the MIUI theme designers on XDA:

Hi MIUI-ers, As more and more themes become developed for MIUI, we need to further ensure the copyrights of the designers to continue an environment conducive to both MIUI and the designers. Furthermore, as we are working on a platform to allow international designers to get paid for their theme designs, this new policy will help to protect the designer's design and instigate more quality themes . To do so, MIUI has decided to change some of the theme policies. Please note, as of May 1st, the following policy will be fully enforced: All MIUI themes and theme components, in mtz file format, will need to be uploaded onto the MIUI themes (upload via designer.xiaomi.com). Any MIUI theme and theme components (i.e. download from forums, websites or other sources) that does not get uploaded into the MIUI theme apk, can no longer be applied onto the MIUI ROM. To specify, components in an mtz file format can include: - Theme - Lockscreen - Icon - Font - Boot animation - Avatars If you are a designer and have current themes you want to share after May 1st please sign up for a designer.xiaomi.com account and upload your themes to the MIUI Themes apk. MIUI is allowing a 1 month transition period (from now to May 1st) for designers to setup this account and upload MIUI themes to designer.xiaomi.com. Sorry for the inconvienced caused! Going forward hopefully this well help resolve our issues with designer copyrights and allow more designers to create quality themes! |
