Is shoptemp belong to GBAtemp, not a partner?

But in GBAtemp Homepage
QUOTEGBAtemp presents: ShopTemp!

I guess, Shoptemp is a new site of GBAtemp.

you don't have to own a store to design it's theme...

notice how this page credits JEX- as the designer yet he is not a gbatemp admin?

He got banned even

(he has been staff here though IIRC)

ShopTemp is GBAtemps main affiliate. It is not owned by the GBAtemp Admins.

mercluke is right. Yes I designed ShopTemp, but that does not mean that we own the shop or even run it. Does a design agency that creates a logo for a company take-over that company? Of course not.

They are nothing more than an official recommend site and official partner.

main difference with "official" is if one gets a bad rep then the other will too.
