On Web Design Thievery
Oh for Pete’s sake.
Why is it that after five-plus years of design for the web, with all the absolutely free resources you can find out there, some people still think they can just pirate an entire site design down to the last pixel and pass it off as their own work. I mean, the freakin’ stylesheet is still called “glish.css” for cryin’ out loud.
It’s almost laughable. I almost feel sorry for the floor company who probably paid mucho dinero to the bonehead(s) who “designed” the site. And I feel worse for Eric, who unknowingly did all the work for some loser and didn’t see a dime. Never mind the fact that Eric has a ton of CSS layout templates available for free on his site they could have used.
