Weblogs.us has added $500 in prize money for the “Global Appeal” category of the Alex King WordPress Theme competition.

Judging criteria is as follows:

  1. Appeal to a global audience
  2. Easily adapted to any language/character set
  3. No country specific images/colors (not red, white and blue etc.). End users can add these touches later, but it is nice to have a theme that is not tied to any country
  4. Has code that is very easily understand and customizable for newbie WP users. (Users should be able to tweak their themes easily.)
  5. Is light on markup, the less the better
  6. Is unique and will not be mistaken for a Kubrick or generic blog
