Another month, another rip

Another month, another rip

Found this one in my referrer logs today.

At least she went as far as changing the style and referencing back to me with "Heavily influenced by coda coza, a great designer".

Well that's awfully flattering of you, "milo IIIVII", but blatantly copying my work without asking, passing it off as your own by slapping a Creative Commons License on it, and then hoping by linking back to me that I won't mind, is possibly lower than just ripping it straight like the previous twat of the month.

Mainly I focus on creating designs with my very own style...

I really wouldn't be bothered by this if you weren't a designer yourself, so who are you trying to kid? And I especially like how she took my intro copy on her homepage and changed words to match her own profile - not only can she not design for herself but she can't think for herself either.

Stupid cow.

What’s funny, link to the Disclaimer says “Don’t take the images and use it for yourself. That could get you into a lot of trouble.”

wow her menu hovers are SO laggy… good luck to anyone who hires her!

i guess her perception of “my very own style” is just a bit more warped than most people..

Jeez, she couldn’t even come up with her own introduction – its almost word for word copy of yours.

Lank original artist we’ve exposed here…

The red text on black background is an eye sore. Also her grey text dissolves into the background image in some areas.

I’d personally be more insulted by her copying your text than the design.

Oh ya, looking at her gallery, it seems all her shit is ripped of too! She just takes other people’s work and try’s to photoshop it with sucky effects like, hmm, Bevel and Emboss? This is pathetic!

Holy crap! I clicked the link and saw the Disclaimer mouse-over text and copied it to paste here in a comment…….but apparently I already did???

Either I’m super-tripping or I need to trade my name in for something less common :/

Milo’s work looks like a Frankenstein-like mix of a typical myspace page and your design. IT’S AAAAALLLLIVVVE!

omg ZERG RUSH.

Thanks for keeping us up to date on who’s flattering you. Perhaps the weblobs could be devoted to smaller compliments, like people having the same haircut as you – something that in itself is probably worthy of it’s own flickr set.

CHARRRRRRGE.

Your ‘do all on display like that is like a siren.

Take pity on your flock and get a hat, unleash the kuif only when needed.
