Everything DiscussSport says is true. He contracted me to design a template back in March which I completed. He was satisifed so I was paid in full. Everything went fine. The style was 100% unique even down to the icons as all of my work is. Just recently I was contacted by a member at vBulletin.org about doing a design for their site. Upon completion, the member stopped responding. No payments were exchanged. My mistake for not requiring a down payment. Anyway, I went to SitePoint to sell the PSD. Updating my portfolio with the template, I then proceeded to DiscussSport.com to check out how the skin was doing, only to find it at some forwarding page. DiscussSport had never installed vBulletin or used the skin to my knowledge, so I thought it was a dead project. This was a huge mistake and something I never should have done. I have never done it before, but felt bad that the skin was never going to be put to use. I felt wrong.
Anyway. I then went back to SitePoint and put the skin up for $20. I woke up today to find a PM from DiscussSport and a link to this thread. I immediately responded with an apology and asked DiscussSport if he wanted me to refund the customer on SitePoint and ask that the style be destroyed or I even asked DiscussSport if he wanted me to design a completely new skin free of charge. I apologize to DiscussSport and would like to make it clear that everything he says, is true, but I would also like to make it clear that this isn't something I do. I have many customers that would speak very well of me. I just happened to slip a few gears by reselling DiscussSport's skin, and for that, I am sorry.
