Strange that Platinium Bucks used stolen pics from isprime in their site design - GoFuckYourself.com

mammy · 02-16-2004, 10:14 AM

guys from www.elro.com have done great work doing illustrations for isprime.com
and the designer for Pb just stole it and put it to main page

that's no good, just my

server on left of www.isprime.com/ is on right http://www.platinumbucks.com where the angel is

Dirty F · 02-16-2004, 10:16 AM

they need to hire some more designers..

That is a complete ripoff. The only difference is the color..

ISPrime has a much nicer looking copy though

Yeah you'd think they'd be able to afford a decent server damn

Phoenix · 02-16-2004, 10:38 AM

The site loads fine for me.

I am 100% sure that Platinum Bucks did not take any pictures from anyone. I dont know the details but i'm sure there is a legit explanation.

Same here. Loads just about everything but that image.

okny · 02-16-2004, 10:56 AM

I dont think that is much of a big deal.

Trax · 02-16-2004, 10:57 AM

wow
the speed sucks bad indeed

$tandaman · 02-16-2004, 11:00 AM

Maybe it's because isprime hosts the freehost for platinum bucks? so thats the picture of the freehost server :)))

justsexxx · 02-16-2004, 11:02 AM

PB loads extremely slowwwww indeed.

Pete · 02-16-2004, 11:10 AM

Not a big deal, I'll bet isprime doesnt "own" that image and if they do this one is a different color so who cares.

Princess Ellisa · 02-16-2004, 11:26 AM

First of all thanks for bringing it to my attention that the site is loading slowly. It is loading fine for me here at the office but I am having a programmer look at it right now just to be safe. Hopefully all will be smooth sailing again shortly. ;)

As for the graphic of the server that apparently appears on both our site and Isprime that graphic was taken from stock images so neither companies own it.

The good news is that we are about to get ready to launch Platinum Bucks 4.0!!!!

As soon as we do you will see all new graphics for our entire site and a ton of really great new features for our Webmasters to take advantage!!! Including a really sleek new stats area

We're getting ready to rock here at PB so stay tuned!!

Observing · 02-16-2004, 11:31 AM

Bah I dont believe you are about to launch 4.0. TCG have been saying that for over a year now, hell 2 months ago I got a mail saying it would launch next week.

Fact of the matter is that new versions are never actually developed, what you do is you keep talking about your new version number till everyone gets used to it, then just put the "new" version number in your page design and there you are. (I love poking tcg about this, because it's just getting ridiculous!")

Good luck with the new version PB you program rocks etc.

Thanks so much for the kind words...I hope you are wrong about the new version being farther away than I think...I am already sick of looking at it I am ready to make another new look just to entertain mysel with. I do promise though that while they maybe further away than I think they are definitly way better than just a new version number! They make our current stats and website look archaic.

So hopefully you will see Platinum 4.0 sooner than later

playa · 02-16-2004, 11:38 AM

prolly a stock image

jact · 02-16-2004, 11:53 AM

Slow would require a signifigant increase in speed. I gave it over a minute and it didn't load.

Black Dog · 02-16-2004, 11:53 AM

This is obviously some misunderstanding. The good people at Platinum Bucks would never steal content or design.

imageman · 02-16-2004, 11:56 AM

I dont promote PB, but you know it may be the design company or designer that ripped off the design and PB are not aware of it yet ???

Just my

They'll sure as hell sell their webmaster's email addresses, though. And to someone who's too stupid to clean their list. Need a car loan, platinum credit card, online romance, smiley faces, work from home job? Just sign up with PB and you'll get all the info you need. Once every day or two.

Just another lil' note:

The above statement is correct ... Isprime is who hosts our freehost so possibly their designer did send us an image or a link to where we might find an image for our site.

SHAME ON YOU for selling our private info..

It's pretty sad considering most webmasters don't fall for crummy spam.

Stupid-ass marketers.
