There is no need to eliminate all publicity. There's nothing wrong with having a link or two. You should probably include a link to your youtube channel or your blog at least. That's just proper attribution. :)
"Is there anything you do not like or bothers you and wish that want to improve?"
Well, the assets are fine, but honestly your submission pages all look like spam. It's 2% asset and 98% advertisement. This is just my own personal opinion of what might be turning people off. It doesn't reflect on OGA policy in any way. Hope you don't feel like I'm being disrespectful. Your songs are good. :)
I like this idea. Has a lot of potential provided it doesn't get too pushy. I checked out the greenlight page, played the demo, liked it, voted yes. :)
There are some other small pixel art mushrooms, but I don't know what your specifics are. do you want mushrooms for a player character to stand on in a 2d sidescroller? a mushroom item?
I am lower on the totem pole of admins, so I don't have much sway on the coding and back-end, but my own weakness is understanding drupal and apache solr. If you know about those or can help me track down resources for understanding those, it could put both of us in a better position to resolve the search issue.
undesired: "I don't have a "Flag for copyright violation" button. All I can do is either that or report spam."
Click "Report spam". I actually do review those. It is the preferred way to draw attention to assets with copyright issues. It helps if you comment with details of the infringement, too, but just a comment alone often goes unnoticed. When I say a comment is helpful, I mean something more than just "this is suspiciously similar to a copyrighted work". Give details, evidence, screenshots, links, comparisons, something. I don't know everything about every IP, so it helps having all you-guys's expertise added in. :)
There is a lot of older stuff that I don't know about that I'm sure people have drawn attention to, but I'm a relatively new moderator, so I wouldn't have seen those complaints at the time. For others, the potential infringement is unclear or borderline, not obvious. For example http://opengameart.org/content/elbaun has some substantial difference and little indication of adaptation from the Ness character beyond the clothing coloring, so I decided to leave it alone until someone could provide more information.
powertomato: "Even on OGA various non-free material was released without anyone noticing for months."
That's true. Sometimes stuff gets missed. Don't be afraid to draw attention to it. Mark it as spam so the moderators notice it. It doesn't guarantee it will get removed, though. Sometimes a moderator decides it isn't a violation. Other times they just continue to miss it. If you think something isn't getting the attention it needs even after marking it, PM me about it.
kagerato: "As for any OGA violations you find, you'll have to keep trying to get the attention of a moderator or admin who actually has the power to flag it."
Teh_Bucket, how did you find it? I must learn your magic.
wow... your magic is made of perseverance.

Looks intriguing!
Are any of these usable for your purposes?

Yup. Report spam. :)
REPORT SPAM!
CLICK IT!
@Powertomato: good catch, but I don't see any of those assets in the actual download, just the preview.
@Eikester: would you be willing to update the preview images to reflect what is available in the downloadable files?
sorry to hear about your platter crash. Glad you got (some?) data recovered, though.
