call me crazy, but it looks like a copy to me. Do your designers have any original thoughts? Or were they directed to gank my shit?

InsaneGreen 09-24-2003 08:02 PM

every type of site design has been stolen along the way... within months there will be hundreds of sites that look like that

xenigo 09-24-2003 08:03 PM

I think they're VERY popular designs at the moment, if you go to WebInc's and BlueDesignStudio's portofolio you'll see several that follow very similar layouts. Did they copy your deisgns as well?? :winkwink:

integrated 09-24-2003 08:03 PM

its not like you invented the wheel there are a shit load of sites like that

I don't see it.

They are not the same.

Sly_RJ 09-24-2003 08:08 PM

I see some similarities. Similarities that I see in many other sites as well.

programs been doing it for years.

Charges that end with .99, .95, always looks suspicous

unique prices makes it look like they bought gas or something

Kimmykim 09-24-2003 08:09 PM

Since I'm off to Mexico in the morning I just thought I'd get a sig in now.

it's so very obviously a copy of not only the program we just launched, but also the sites. Yes there are other sites out there with similar layouts, and no, I did not reinvent the wheel. But come on.... we're not looking at the whole of the Net. We're looking at two $10 dollar programs here, with launch dates in the same week, that are remarkably similar.

rooster 09-24-2003 08:11 PM

good thing i have sigs turned off. I sorta like the platinum one a bit better :2 cents:

Mike AI 09-24-2003 08:11 PM

Ideas get stolen all the time in this biz ( any biz), not much you can do about it but call people out, and hope others pay attention.

I know I do.

Sly_RJ 09-24-2003 08:13 PM

It wouldn't be so bad if the sites were running on different business models. They're both $10 programs. Not a swift move.

BradShaw 09-24-2003 08:14 PM

Have lens sue, like he sued me for taking ideas off AP!

I have known for a while PlatBucks was working on a $10 program, so I do not think they ripped your idea off, or the designs all in the past few days.

that's an old sales trick. instead of numbers like $9.95 try $9.93 or $7.75 try $7.73

Brad, you are ignorant. You obviously don't know the back story here. Probly best to just close the piehole before you look like more of a baffoon.

Carrie 09-24-2003 08:15 PM

They all look like one-page throwoffs of Bangbus.
Big splash up top, individual boxes of girls below.
Other than that they're very different unless you count the fact that they're in the same niche.

Martin 09-24-2003 08:16 PM

Ahhh, after taking a closer look I see your point AMP.


Interesting.

The Truth Hurts 09-24-2003 08:22 PM

Layout isn't new.
The coincidences happen all the time as well, and are always suspect, but differences are usually just enough to keep people guessing...

Happened with paying counters, for a dollar sites, join4free sites, "magazine" style sites, it happened when most tours went from longform minimal graphics to non-scrollers with all graphics, it's happening again with the long-scrollers making a comeback, it happened so that you can't tell one program site from another, or one site from another, and it'll keep happening..,

There hasn't been a single original or even remotely unique idea established for as far back as I can remember.

BradShaw 09-24-2003 08:23 PM

Amp, even if they did snag the idea and the design layouts, who cares? I do not, and most webmasters only care about conversions and $. Hell look at Rogers gimmick, gives you an idea how cheap whores many of us are.


If they convert, I will send traffic to either program.

Hooper 09-24-2003 08:25 PM

haha. yeah.. wiseman..good thing nobody has seen the 15 sites we have had ready to launch for TWO MONTHS now that are exactly that style.

cyberpunk 09-24-2003 08:25 PM
