when is a skin complete? it's compatible with many modules/plug ins. and it's downlaoded a lot.
and what's a lot?
From memory example, Aeon Wide was hitting about 500 downloads per week peak when it became a hot skin, and that was without the updates on forum or getting from svn, Xface has had 163558 downloads and is the top Hot skin.
Skins are monitored for all the above criteria's, when reached for a period of time, then the skin is promoted.
I'm sure cul8er will make it
