  This is my first commercial theme and I'm just wondering how much it is worth? I'm thinking ~$25 AUD Please state the currency!

  AD = Africa Dollars
  
  No just kidding, yes all currency names per country are given a code.
  In both Norway, Denmark and Sweden we use "Kroner" (Swedish "Kronar"), and the codes (in same array) are: NOK, DKK + SEK - same name but very different codes.
  
  I think your theme is nice, but there are a lot of us who support this Open Source community by giving a way are code for free - as the core developers of Postnuke

  But I need to get money to enable me to have a webpage. No cash - no site - no Postnuke themes/modules simple as that.

  But you get everything you need for free, why don't you want to give back what ever you can to the comunity. If its 1 theme - great. If you have 10 themes 5 for free - 5 for money - fine by me. But 1 theme - that just to cheap in my world.
  
  As your site grows you can select a more expensive solution.
  
  My host cost only $1.50 a month (€1.20), and that is within my budget. I have about 5000 visitors every month, and some of them are using the banners I have put on there. But it takes a while to find the right banners to advertise to the visitors of each site. And when I find the right mix, I hopefully get my $1.50 per month back. - And when ever the income from banners or from my future web-shop grows to be some more, I will transfer my site to a different host - or buy a larger product from the one I'm using.
  
  Are you still having trouble with your host? I'll be happy to help you till you get back online...

  Greetings,
  
  I would say $AUD25 is too expensive - I have just released a commercial theme and I am only charging $US6.99 for it. I would also recommend that to attempt commercial theme sales you should try to make something thats a little different from the thousands of themes already available.
  
  Kindest regards
  Lobos

  It is very different, I just chose that screen so it looks like a Postnuke theme, any other screen and you will think its not Postnuke

  I'm not sure that the theme has the exclusive look to be commercial. It looks quite simple, and charging $25 AUD is alot I think ... Maybe US$ 5. And why not get some free themes and some commercial ones ?

  Hmm, sell a theme that is a replica of another site.
  Awell....I think its to expensive, and I agree with Lobos, there is nothing really special about it so why the high price?
