Now Corey isn't no saint anymore but he still deserves the respect of people blatantly not ripping his designs.
Seeing as the issue of yaXay was brought up first, we begin with this.

The vBhacks.us logo is rip #1. All you've done is simply taken yaXay's orange and blue globes and mixed them in together.

Rip #2 of yaXay is done by another piece of your portfolio which is http://www.computerproblems.org/ As you can clearly see the login area has been blatantly copied off yaXay, the only thing you bothered to change is removing the dots.

Secondly, we have you ripping the ravio design. Your site, http://www.initialz.com/ proves this. http://web.archive.org/web/200209231...p://ravio.com/ (may take a while to load, is the original ravio design).

First we'll take a look at your intro section compared to ravio's intro section. Anybody notice the identical text?

We then have the nav bar rip. Your nav bar has a little hover effect. Looks nice it really does. It's a shame that it has already been created exactly the same a long time before. Check out http://www.hostingdiscussion.com/ (designed by ravio).

From a screenshot taking by someone of your initialz website only last week you had a much more similar site to ravio, now you've changed it a little bit, but hardly much. You still used the same "Buy vBulletin" image that ravio created.

It's been noted in two different places now, vB.org and yaXay that you've ripped the yaXay style.

So Live Wire, I'm pretty curious about how you have come to design the exact same elements of ravio's designs (http://www.ravio.com/ - http://www.yaxay.com/ and http://www.hostingdiscussion.com/) is it pure psychic ability and you've never seen them before, or is it just because you cannot design at all and rip all elements of your design? I'm most interested to know.


Just to note, this member has now been banned on yaXay, let's hope other forums, including vB.org take the same precaution

Also about the computer problems image. Thats just the same color. The shape is diffrent and so is the shadeing around it complely. Its close but looks like ++++ acually, and pretty embarressed having that there as my portfolio. allwell....

Well if your happy working with and using other images created by designers who`s permission you dont have then fine.

It says a lot cause if you plan on being taken seriously at all then folk will take one look at this and laff. It exposes the truth that some kid somewhere is looking for a fast $$ like 90% of the other kiddys on the net these days.

Whats funnier is that your rippin off one of the most ripped designers ever , ravio. Who byt he way was also a giant fraud stealing £1,000`s from folk. Great advertisement that ;p

How truelly pathetic

Wow... That's all I'm going to say.:ermm:

Evidence has been shown for both sides, but remember two things:

1. Copying absolutely anything that another person has created is a copyright violation.
2. Jelsoft has no tolerance for the infringement of intellectual property rights.

Not to make a judgement call on your actual setup, but be warned that we do not hesitate to ban users who demostrate a lack of respect for such laws. If you want feedback on your forum, I strongly suggest removing details that could result in this conversation ever taking place.
