Brandon H Supervisor Posted August 8, 2014 Supervisor Share Posted August 8, 2014 it's similar sure but I wouldn't really say it's copying it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draconian Guppy Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery That said, this does look similar: http://devsforum.com/topic/42-community-developed-with-a-default-style/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimeMaster Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Neowin's design will be changing soon anyway, so I don't think it matters too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 To be honest neither Neowin nor that site are too far removed from the default IPB theme. http://community.invisionpower.com/ The Evil Overlord and Aergan 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aergan Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Colours are similar, that's about it. Can't really accuse someone using the same base product as copying just because they picked some RGB values that don't look awful together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
game_over Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 They both use the same software so share the same layout and since they have used a similar blue it looks similar but it's definitely not a copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex.amazingboy Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Hey guys, whats up with devsforum.com basiclly copying neowin theme? Are you sure about it still? If memory serves me correct then you were saying that the "Neowin says that Devsforum Copied the theme" ? But this topic's replies says something else ?!?!?
