The author CLEARLY posted ON THIS THREAD and told you that you were ripping his skin off.

If that's the case for any of those other threads you listed, they should be removed as well. But its not.

If you can't remember the original skin maker's comments, check the first and second pages.

PS: These other threads aren't direct rips.
One of them is a facebook clone (facebook doesn't have a vbulletin style)
The other one is a IPB style. (its a conversion from IPB to vBulletin)
Another is an ubuntu skin and a twitter skin.
These are ALL NOT currently vBulletin Skins. They are DIFFERENT FROM RIPS. Learn the difference.

Your Rip on the other hand is totally different. Someone already made this skin for his own vBulletin site and you just posted it here, and took credit for it without his consent.
