Saurik has released a revamped Theme Center for Cydia in coordination with MacCiti and implemented using the new Cydia 'whole package index'.

As I am not in charge of updating this area of Cydia (MacCiti/ModMyi are), users can actually expect to see new content on a biweekly (every two weeks, not twice a week) schedule. ;P

Right now, you will find a selection of themes from the top selling vendors in Cydia, as well as themes selected by the employees of MacCiti and ModMyi.

Currently, all nominations for additional Feature Themes, regardless of the repository they are hosted in, must be sent to either MacCiti or ModMyi.

However, Cydia 1.1, whose release is imminent, provides the additional platform hooks required to allow nominations directly from users to us.

We'll let you know when the new version is available.

this seems a step in the right direction for themes... but there also must be some vetting process because, as with Apple's own policy, the amount of horrible and half baked themes is astounding! plus, some are charging money for them... furthermore, there is no guarantee, or at least feedback on issues, these horrible themes don't bork your idevice.. please, please can the repos vet those horrible and half baked themes.. there must be a standard to reach in order to be hosted!!!!
