Does this design look familar to you?

http://www.cumsoda.com?

It should do because its the one you ripped off for this..

http://www.4threactor.com/portfolio/cjs/gaysexgay/

Not only were you fucking stupid enough to copy my layout, you even had the nerve to use the same fucking text links i have on CumSoda.

You need to removing that shit ASAP.

Regards,

Lee

A few of the same links and same basic table structure. Oh yeah both have circles in the logo. Seriously though it is different enough that even if he looked at your design while making his it would not really matter.
Sucks and all but fuck its a tgp design and its different. Not to mention his appears to be a working one while yours is just a design.

ok opps. still it is changed quite a bit. Sure bash him for ripping the layout and stealing the idea if you wish, problem would be though that it is changed enough.
The DMCA would be ungrounded though.

The DMCA would be enough purely on the text links he has in the site on his portfolio which are an exact duplicate of ours.

Not to mention a good 90% of his HTML code also.

If you think so go for it. You just may stumble across someone who is stupid enough to make him delete it.

LEE,

Speaking about the layout - that's not my fault. Our client asked for the same for himself and just couldn't stand the idea of having another one. He really loved your layout. what did I have to do then?

And about the links - that's probably my fault. Ill remove them ASAP or even remove the whole work from the folio.

BTW you can hit me up on the ICQ right now to discuss.
Please do this.


AND ALL YOU GUYS, WHO POSTED TO THE THREAD

Thanks for yor kind attention and support.

The post about thumbs 90x90 was really funny

AND TO THE CONCLUSION I MUST ADD

I've never stolen ideas - I have enough of my own.

When asked to make the same not standart layout I'll not put it in the folio.

I'm happy to hear that all of you pay attention and look through our folio.
It means that our work doesn't stay unnoticed.

THANKS GUYS!

in defense of European Lee, I gotta say whoever thinks design is the key for conversion instead of sales pitchs, text, and its placement in the layout, really REALLY needs a reality check. That's why they asked this guy to copy the layout, because the one asking for it knows its business better than 99% of this board. Yes, fucking html, and so what? Even my kids know how to use Photoshop, knowing about marketing, conversions, sales and stuff like that is a very different story, and it makes the difference between boys and men (or ladies like European Lee, just in case)

Nah, I was asking Europeanlee-- He had them do design and never paid.... seems funny what he finds to pick about other people yet he cheats others himself..
