stolen gallery design

[fstab]

some dolt (that apparently can't be bothered to learn html himself) stole a gallery design from me, as well as the thumbs and pics. got them on mark's book-mark even.
his: http://www.taken4u.com/bbn0107.html
mine: http://www.dogfart-thumbs.com/free/325/mark.html

what do you folks do when this sort of thing happens? we both use the same sponsor, so i started complaining there. ugh, just pisses me off. i know imitation is the best form of flattery, but he could have changed it just a little.

He uses different counter.

Believe me, there's nothing you can do about, absolutely nothing. You might have heard many different reactions but none will have any result at all. The only thing you'll gain, will be lost time. Skip the stupid uselessmaster and continue your work.

try being flattered. move on and make another design.

heh, i suppose i am flattered to an extent.
i'm less angry about it now.

as it turns out, the sponsor is going to email him and give him a warning.

so, mission accomplished i guess!

Hey same thing happened to me...

Bu the moron forgot to change the ref codes.......
I got 6 sales out of this moron..should i send him a thank you????? lol

Stop bitching and moaning. It's just a simple gallery layout. Everyone knows people imitate the galleries that are at the top of the larger sites. Those sites are probably making money. So why wouldn't you make your gallery look as close to a successful one as possible. I could see if this was a tour page, main site, or some other non-tgp related page, but a single gallery? Let's get real.

fstab, that happens to me quite reguarly and it doesn't normally bother me, people just steal the design and whack on their own pics.

What did piss me off though - and I can't believe that he had the balls to do this - was when a guy ripped a gallery right from my avs site and posted up to just about every tgp out there. The only reason that I caught him was because the dumbass forgot to change the linking code. So I guess that I should be quite glad...
