Hi all,
Sorry for the late reply. Have been ill with flu and hence the slow response.
I express my deepest regrets to know that several elements from PopStyle theme seem to have made it to mine, for which I sincerely apologize.
This was my first theme - but let me assure you that the kanging was not deliberate.
I am sure you must be aware of many of the TemplateBread themes available on the internet, and I once downloaded one such theme. However, I soon realized the that it belonged to another author. But the de-compiled files did stay on my drive.
With time, the number of images etc only increased in number, mixing up with several other files, and I am sure that is where most of PopStyle's elements got in. And it is my fault, I am sure I was conscious of this somewhere at the back of my mind.
But again that is no excuse on my part and I take sole responsibility for it. All the themes have been unpublished by me from the Play Store.
Apologies to CarbonRom users as well, and more so to the team, and all other Android Developers. But I would again like to reaffirm that it was in NO WAY INTENTIONAL. My design skills aren't such that I would have to rip off someone else's work.
(Oh, and this is what I meant by images getting all mixed up - incase any of you recall earlier versions of the theme

And no, I don't think apologizing to anyone is shameful, or indicative of any form of meekness or fear. If you can come out and say, "Hey, yes I made a mistake and I apologize," it doesn't make you small.
