ahhh, I see that too Kevin...that would explain it although it is still kind of lame. He could of at least changed text and alt1 and 2 colors

This is by far the highest quality skin shop on the market. Good luck with your business!

yep was gonna say lads the skin will be similar due to vica being the main designer for them.

nice designs but as i said to dm (mite be the one that posted this dont know his vb.org name)

that the skins being so heavy on template edits that it mite prove problematic for customers installing hacks/plugins etc

anyway best of luck bud

nice work, but try not ripping others for your inspiration :down:
Because they were by the same designer... Dwight/Vica. The Alt colours are different, they just look similar. It's not uncommon for designers to create works that are similar to their previous work.

EDIT: Oh CAMs beat me to it. Thanks

As for the customisation worries, I plan to write detailed instructions (or perhaps even tools that automate it) for the popular add-ons for all our skins. Hopefully then people shouldn't have any problems.

Similar enough to not be noticable to the naked eye without a color picker. The container graphics are very similar as well as the forum markers.

No, it's not, but I would suggest talking to your designer about his obligation to not walk the thin line of rights violations when he sells unique rights to a design then reproduces it in such a similar fashion...especially if you are going to be mass marketing them.

Just a side note...I'm not trying to bash you or Dwight. His work is awesome and I wish you the best of luck in your endeavors...but I do vigorously protect my brand
