Well 10 to 1, I’m not going to argue with you guys…
heh thats pretty similar… just a few diff colors and designs, id say change it… 
im not on any side of this, but im sure he worked hard on the design whether it looks like unflux’s or not. so give him a break
maybe they can be similar and thats ok, ive seen alot of sites out there that look almost the same… as long as pixelmorder didn’t actually rip unfulx. u know… great minds think alike so…
just give it a thought
peace

edit: also unflux, what is that pixely font you use on your site? the one that says loading and welcome at the beginning. ive been trying to find one…thx
WTF that lay-out is the best fkg lay-out you ever made. Great fkg work m8.
how about you calm down with the swearing T-O
LOL, I’m not sure if you meant to rip it or not. All I can say is I design for the shear joy of it. Design because you love making new interfaces and detailing every project. If you’re just trying to copy others you’re in it for something else.
sorry unflux, but i think you’re overreacting a little. I don’t think that he copied the design from you, because i’ve seen “your” kind of design many times b4 but you’re the first one who complains. Sorry, but even though they are quite similar, i think his navigation looks better than yours. and just because you see this one similarity, i don’t think that it means anything. if everyone, who notices something that someone else did the same way as he/she did, started complaining, this place would be a mess because many wwws that are posted here are very similar. That’s often how people learn…
i think you should reconsider your accusation…
peace
If the designs aren’t the same, I wouldn’t call it a rip. Besides, there are many designs that are similar to yours. Did they all copy you too? It’s hard to say. Just because another member on this forum has a similar site design to yours doesn’t mean he copied your design. I would give electrongeek the benefit of the doubt.
karenai did you read all the post in this thread. EG isn’t the one being acused of a rip. Unflux is concerned that pixelmoder has copyied his site.
honestly, i think half of you flash people all follow the trends set by the big boys.
ie: Billy Bussey, 2Advanced, WhosWe and so forth.
I’d like to see a REALLY orginal flash interface from someone.
I myself also stand by Unflux’s claim that the two sites are too similar. But it can also be taken as flattery.

Oops. Acutally, I did read all of the posts, which is why I got a little confused. :hangover: Lol. Well, I still support pixelmoder.
i feel it wasnt a rip…
nice site but i went to vist ur mass histology site?
i dun understand why u need to use flash for just the top menu? which could have been easily done using html…
correct me if i miss out other flash parts…
edit: done
It saddens and angers me to see what is happening here. I thought this board was a place to give and get help and show new ideas without havign to worry about some one seeing it and using your idea for there own.
What we have here is clearly a serial ripper. In 2 other threads beofre this we have him accused of stealing othere ppls work and ideas. In the thread where he is being told to change his site so it doesn’t look so close to a promment board members, Unflux posted. Here we see pixelmoder had the chance to see unflux’s site while he is changing his own. I think we can rule out this was an accedent.
He even copied tutorial’s from this site without properly crediting the creator.
The fact that anybody would support what is so clearly a ripp realy dissapoints me
If someone can ripp a site like this and get support on his side when it is so clearly a copy well I won’t be taking my chances on having my ideas ripped.
This thread has really changed the way I will post my work on this board. :-\
The reason i say this is becuase i love this board. I ow it and kirupa a huge debt in advancing my skills as a designer. I don’t want the board to get a reputation as a place to steal ideas(which it seems it might be getting http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=19585). So lets continue to try and make the board better and not let stuff like this happen without challange.
ok. i would just like to add one opinion.
As i already mentioned, i see 1 similarity between those two pages, but that’s it. but why should he change his design because of this? i really think you’re being unfair to him. if also the entire design looked similar to unflux’s, i would agree with you guys, but for now i don’t. and the picture (banner), if you think that that idea is also copied from you, then you’re also wrong. as you maybe haven’t notced, since so many www’s on this forum look so similar, people who take them to learn will not be able to develop something different and that’s why there are more and more www’s that look similar. but that doesn’t mean that one is trying to ripp of someone else. it just means that they’re experimenting (trying out). maybe they just aren’t able to come up with something original.
i’m not trying to defend pixelmorder, and i’m also not trying to offend UNFLUX. i’m just trying to be fair.
peace!
i hope this issue will be solved soon.
i am DEFINITELY not attacking ANYONE
but if u feel so then be it…

who do you mean by “u”?
whoh, this is some crazy **** - im off back to random…
Haven’t you ever heard that imitation is the most sincere form of flattery?
And that is saying that your design was used as the inspiration for this one.
As much as I admire your site, it is not the only one like it out there. It is done in a style that is very popular right now.
I think you have a huge ego if you are giving yourself credit for having an absolutely original design and asking Pixelmoder to change his/her site.
Where do you get you ideas from?
