So I updated my theme @ [B00merang Dark - OpenDesktop.org](https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1013477/), but the system won’t let me link to the Github release ([https://github.com/B00merang-Project/B00merang-Themes/releases/download/4.0/B00merang.Dark.v4.zip](https://github.com/B00merang-Project/B00merang-Themes/releases/download/4.0/B00merang.Dark.v4.zip)), it throws

Is there some problem because the theme is so old or is the service having issues?

Can you logout, completely remove any cookies from your cache regarding [opendesktop.org](http://opendesktop.org) or related sites and try adding the link again?

it still doesn’t work, but for other themes I added more recently it works. I uploaded from Github to [https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1236948/](https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1236948/) without problem.
