We have removed the original content of this post because the designer has finally decided to redesign his client’s site with his own design, even though we have not gotten any apology from the designer for copying our site design in the first place. Our intention in fingering copycats on this blog is never to humiliate the designers. Rather, we hope to make them realise that they cannot get away with simply ripping off someone else’s designs, and that they should respect others’ works and learn to love their own. Getting inspired by someone else’s work is one thing; simply ripping it off is quite another.

It’s a downright shame people still copy others work, especially in the technology age we live in. I, too, have experienced what I like to call “site rip” and it’s not fun to deal with, especially in a legal sense. Best of luck to you all!

I agree with you Peters, what they did is low. Just imagine if our client happens to visit that site and notices the similarity of the design?

Well, at least they decided to change the design, not like Spina Marketing who decided to change the filename from index1.html to index_new.html, hoping to hide it from us.
