g'day all, Just wondering if you can help me out and let me know what you think of my forum?

http://www.monster-designs.com/Buttons/mdbutton6.gif (http://www.monster-designs.com)

Its a graphics forum, with an arcade, gallery, quiz, and quotes database. We also use toplist as our affiliates add-on, so if you'd like to affiliate while you are there please do.

Comments?

looks quite like the one at MonsterGamer (http://www.monstergamer.net/vb/?styleid=75) :|

And to boot, its a rip..all you did was remove some things from the header image and put your site's name.

hey Allan, le gars a fait un rip de skin...

hey Allan, the guy just ripped a skin from somewhere else...

-- i find really dumb to advertise a style when you just ripped it... does anybody know that the internet is easily searchable ?!

i suppose he thought nobody would have visited that site ...

Considering that staff members from both sites have similar usernames and profiles, it could be safe to assume that he owns or designed both sites...

Theres no point in jumping on him without proof or even basic investigation...

This is one of my all-time favorite skins. I first saw it on vbseo.com and fell in love with it back then.

Well at least he knows that if someone was to rip his stuff that we would stick up for his work. :)

Well - Simple deduction of similarities between staff, design, url and other factors that leap off the page (such as identical staff avatars, profile pictures, and a url to the supposed "ripped-off" site) all lead to a general conclusion ;)

Of course, there is a slight chance that it's a very clever duplicate - But until he can clear it up, let's give him a chance to quash the rumours ;)

I recieved an e-mail back from the owner of monstergamer.net, and he confirmed he did let monster-designs.com use the skin, but only that site..sorry for the mixup, but sometimes, ya never do know ;)

It's alright - Very little harm was done :)

For future reference though, if you suspect a site to be a rip of another site, contact the "ripped" site owner and ask them to confirm whether it is or isn't - Either way, they will be happy that you are looking out for them and their intellectual and design property, and if it turns out to be a rip, they'll be even happier knowing they can take action against the individual(s) who ripped a skin ;)

well its good to see the site got discussed, even if it was slightly off. My apologies on not answering earlier, as life off the net has gotten interesting.
Monster Gamers and Monster Designs are sister sites. Namely one being for gaming and one for graphics. MG's graphics department was getting big and I had another board Grim Designs that we shut down due to a conflict between admins. So we closed that site, and after discussions with MG we opened and started MD.

Its taken awhile but its starting to get going, was wondering if you have any ideas on how to make it bigger and better?

The clock is great, where did you get it????
