You're wrong. The attribution must be present of course, that is a very fundamental aspect of the license! However, the hyperlinks in the HTML footer aren't that. The full license document clearly stipulates what is and is not required in the form of attribution. As with all of these things, if in doubt ask a legal professional (if you've got a copyright lawyer friend, go prod him/her).

The template author does go to some trouble (not a lot) to try and preserve the footer links, as Svenbrian already saw. However, it's no trouble for someone moderately familiar with PHP and/or codes Wordpress templates/plugins (or it may be some trouble, I find it hard to gauge these things sometimes).

Maybe I should read the CC license. Thanks for clearing that up Salathe.

Svenbrian, sorry for confusing you with my false statements. If you need somebody to remove the links for you: try the marketplace, I'm sure someone will do it for a small fee. Unfortunately, this is something I've never done before and it would probably take way too much time for me to fix this.

BTW, your site made me think about purchasing an aquarium!
