vSector 12-19-2002, 09:29 PM Check out this muppet
http://soft-nara.wo.to/
and compare it to:
http://www.4dwebhosting.com/
On the ripped version hover over the softnara logo to see the '4d Web Hosting Home' title tag!!!
hahaha - how did you find out about this?
(100th post :D )
Chicken 12-19-2002, 09:41 PM Muppet does not know how to align the image all that well.
JSpired 12-19-2002, 09:42 PM And they offer design services to boot. Now that's sad!
IGobyTerry 12-19-2002, 09:42 PM heh funny, since they're advertising website design. You going to say anything to them (If you can, Looks like they speak some other language).
vSector 12-19-2002, 09:44 PM I found them in my referral log...
I may contact them, but want to play with them for a bit :-)
Synthetic 12-19-2002, 09:45 PM Definately a rip.. I think this is the second time someone has stolen your design?

Yeah, I remember reading about the first rip.
vSector 12-19-2002, 10:04 PM Yeah its the second BLATANT rip. Ill try and dig up the old post :-)
vSector 12-19-2002, 10:10 PM Yep here it goes:

I have just submitted the rip to
http://www.pirated-sites.com/
susannad 12-19-2002, 11:33 PM and they've got ****ty pop-ups that chase you out of their rip
down with them !
Hostkookster 12-19-2002, 11:35 PM I can see it's in an asian language. If it's in China there are no copyright laws, or the laws they have are not enforced. %70 of all software bought in China is pirated (just to prove my point) :)
derek.bodner 12-20-2002, 01:06 AM the server it's located on appears to be in seoul, south korea. those copyright laws would then apply.
JWise 12-20-2002, 01:31 AM haha, completely ripped off..
Well atleast you know your designs are good enough to be ripped.. at the same time I would be Happy and a little mad.. more happy though
input,
Acroplex 12-20-2002, 01:37 AM Was he in the referral logs because he's directly pulling images from your web site?
Acroplex 12-20-2002, 01:40 AM Never mind found this in his code:
<p align="center">Copyright(c)2000 SOFTNARA All rights reserved. <BR><BR><BR><A
href="http://t.extreme-dm.com/?login=4dweb" target=_top><IMG height=1 alt=""
src="softnara.files/i.gif" width=1 border=0></A>
The idiot left the counter in his code, so that serves him right :D
JWise 12-20-2002, 01:47 AM ^ haha
reminds me of this site, that copyed another site's WHOLE meta tag and pasted onto thier site.. Too lazy to make a simple Meta Tag, what is the net coming to?
The Dude 12-20-2002, 02:49 PM I couldnt believe how much alike they looked!!!
I wonder if they just happend to make it like that,or they did indeed rip off of yours,who knows........(ANYWAY 2 FIND OUT??)

Alex[nl] 12-20-2002, 10:33 PM First link is dead now ... so I think they noticed ;)
susannad 12-23-2002, 04:37 AM I can see it's in an asian language
the language is Korean
vSector 12-23-2002, 04:39 AM Ok, i think its time to get legal on their asses.
DangerMouse 12-23-2002, 04:48 AM Thats bad news.. What you gonna do with them? hee hee... time for a little fun eh?
:)
susannad 12-23-2002, 04:50 AM keep us posted
(pun intended)
but we have to know what comes of this
vSector 12-28-2002, 03:28 AM I sent the webmaster a polite email saying that if they dont remove it ASAP I would proceed with legal action.
Today the layout has been removed.
Acroplex 12-28-2002, 03:29 AM I bet they were from South Korea; the North Koreans seem rather arrogrant these days :D
vSector 01-05-2003, 06:17 PM oh and looky this time... an other one :-/
http://www.3sl.com.ar/
If you look at http://soft-nara.wo.to now, it reminds me of a someone's site I have seen here, but can't remember who.
susannad 01-05-2003, 07:50 PM but was this done in ignorance ?
:laugh:
Acroplex 01-06-2003, 03:46 AM vSector your use of a hidden counter is ingenius :)
vSector 01-06-2003, 04:47 AM shhhhh!

PhilG 08-30-2003, 08:34 AM Doing a whois lookup gives an email to the owner... Shell I just submit it to some adult mailing lists?
