Ripped, kind of!

[figment]

I always felt a bit left out when so many other sites got ripped and Spoiltchild.com didn't. Well it kinda happened
These nice people | Front Window Web Site Builders | are claming responsibility. Without actually explicitly saying they designed it.

Have you contacted these morons?

 

[figment]

Yes, mail just sent.

Oh that is a dirty trick. Basically they are saying hey its OK to rip somebodys design.

Have you thought about adding a little script that checks the referrer and displays something ... well, not very nice?

We have had a few blatent rips in our time, but this is a little more sly.

I actually cannot believe SC hasn't had any rips that you know of.

No harm in trying the polite route first Redfly
Got a decent reply from the guy:

Hi. Thanks for the note and please accept my apology for any lack of clarity.
There was no deliberate intention to imply anything other than that the sites listed were good examples to view for inspiration.

I've removed your site from the list and found some better wording for that page as well.

I'm truly sorry to have caused you any trouble.

 

[mneylon]

That makes a nice change

 

[Redfly]

Yes, that's a rarity all right. Fair play to him/her and I guess I should start rethinking my approaches at this stage.

 

[Gavin]

Yes for sure fair play to him, he could have simply ignored the email.
