Someone said this layout is a rip? I thought that you guys here all see and run hosts, so you poeple might have seen it if it is, I have never seen it but this is just to show the person...

not sure if the images are ripped, but the layout is very similar to hundreds of other hosting sites out there. they may even be one that looks exactly the same.

Yeah, that looks like a pretty standard layout. I wouldn't exactly call it a rip :)

Thanks guys ;)
I know its not a rip, because I created it from scratch, but they dont seem to believe me

<< doesnt think it is a rip, did anyone give any proof?

No they didnt, lol here is the msn convo :P
[04:26:53 PM] {Elliot Feri: where did you rip it from?
[04:27:01 PM] [DIGITAL:FUS: ?
[04:27:21 PM] [DIGITAL:FUS: Hey, I really dont like to be insulted, I

[04:28:12 PM] {Elliot Feri: ok, we don't want to waste around $3000 us
per time for ripped graphics.
Digital is me :-P

Why bother ripping such a poor quality design. The ripper should visit the Ceonex portfolio ;) :D

they were going to pay you $3k , for that? are they blind as well as crazy?

Lol, now hold on, this is my first hosting template :-P

Eh, Nah that don't look like a rip. I've seen hundreds of layouts with a simular design but thats because its a simple and effective style. Wanna tell me who these guys paying 3k for a site are. I could use some cash.. Lol

You're getting paid $3k for your first hosting template? jesus, my first template I never attempted to sell due to its sheer quality - A little tip, before you sell your services....get good at what you do. This isn't just aimed at you, but everyone doing bad work like this and trying to sell :)

Hey lol, im not trying to sell, they approached me, and so have others...

too poor of a design to even consider a rip

good sales nevertheless

its an ok design
hmmm $3000 man i must start chargeing people alot more
you sure they didnt say $300 which is even high for that design :)

i personally think it's a well thought out, semi-origonal (sp?), prductive design. i mean, if it is true that monstertemplates creates designes similar to this, then you can't go wrong with making a design along those lines. well, as long as there is a difference in how it's made and works (scripting and all that).

besides, if this is what the customer wants, this is what you give them, right? (of course, this particular customer didn't want that)

not very original but a clean design.... I wouldn't say that it's crap but..... I wouldn't pay $3000 for it either..... actually I wouldn't pay even $300 for it hah

anyone willing to point me in the direction of these "special" people that want to pay $3000 for that design....... I'd be glad to make them one like that for alot cheaper :P

ill keep my special clients to myself ;)

I say its a decent design...

I wouldn't pay for that but I've seen similar layouts sell around here for similar money.

3 k for that.. wow
since its your "first hosting template" I suggest you look around at what other companies are pricing. Assuming there is no flash.. i say thats worth about.. $300 USD?

Wait this is a rip!

Err, nvm. It looks like every other hosting site I have seen. How unorigional. I hope your company dies (jk).

What company :-P
They just approached me and offered 3k for a site...

"They" as in someone that knew you?

No, as in an a company unknown to me

as said before, some templates are the same as others with images just changed..
