Bubbabyte Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 Its absolutely amazing. OBVIOUSLY THERES GOING TO BE RESEMBLANCES BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY THEMES OUT THERE. But for ffrggin sake! Its not a rip! I never see any of you others posting in KoLs threads saying his themes have images that look like others, neither in dazzlas and so on.... Just stop it for once if your a skeptic visit 2true.org and view the site mine is exactly the same. And as for redrope I know how you feel but dont post in any of my threads from now on if youve got that opinion mate. Oh My, it's almost not even worth it trying to teach some people some basic guidlines. But here goes... hey alan, there doesn't have to "OBVIOUSLY" be resemblances to other themes, the theme is a rip, a better rip then previous rips mind you, but nonetheless a rip. Look at kol's themes, it's quite alright for him to make, hmm say a "studio28" style theme, that somewhat resembles, let's say "mix", another kol theme, and alan the question for the day is, Do you know why it's okay for this to happen? Well i'll tell ya, it's because they are HIS GRAPHICS! yep that's right... so incase you should feel the need to question this again, here is the LINK to this page. Please feel free to *cough* COPY *cough* and paste the link when needed. Oh and btw.. i've visited 2true.org, and i can honestly say... you've done an excellent incredible amazing job at making your theme the SAME COLOR as 2true... well done my friend. and as for the redrope beef that you aparently have...just my opinion but i dont think your in any condition to say what people can do...just my 2 cents.

Iguana Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 Ok, check this out, "2True" and Dynamine taskbars look strikingly similar: That's Alan's theme.

Alan Zeino Posted September 22, 2003 Author Share Posted September 22, 2003 that was just a dumb post cause there isnt much similarity anyway.

Mark Otto Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 OK alanzeino, I've commented in maybe two of the threads for your themes, and none that I have seen are originals. I mean come on man, have you no pride in your work as to not make your own schema and develop it yourself? And this is the most obvious thing: It looks just like the Studio28 3 theme as far as the caption bar goes. As far as this "theme" and Dynamine having the same taskbar, what the hell are you guys smoking? The only similarity I see is the start button being the same shape and such. Otherwise, I mean ****! Taskbars can look alike for crap's sake. Bottom line, Xcitin or Alan or whatever the hell your name is, stop with this crap that it's your own work when this users here are so skilled at pickin flaws because of other people ripping themes. Woulda been a nice theme had it not been such a rip on others conceptual and physical works.

Bant Veteran Posted September 23, 2003 Veteran Share Posted September 23, 2003 the only person truly over the rpping things is you alan. if you havnt noticed, there is a huge difference between 'similarities' and taking somebody elses image and changing the colors, or the contrast. doing those things doesnt make an image your own. CREATE FROM SCRATCH. or.... stop theming. you have never shown us any creativity or artistic talent, you don't have much knowledge of how stylebuilder (or msstyles) works, what gives? You have released over 10 themes and all of them have ripped something. EACH time you have been called on it, and asked to fix it. you arent fooling anybody, we will always notice a ripped image when we see one... because one of us probably actually created the original image that you butchered. you need to take a good look at yourself and decide what you want to do with your time. what you have done thus far is the equivalent of stealing an essay from a classmate and changing a few of the words hoping that your teacher won't notice that you've cheated, plagiarized, etc. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/101182-vs-2true/page/3/#findComment-1186748 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubbabyte Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 dude you're bragging about 1 theme out of like 15 that you didn't totally rip... and ya know what... honestly the theme sucks. You have a big 2 on the start menu for christs sake... i think you should just give it up alan, there is no way a guy like you can make any sort of comeback after what you've done... we've told you from the beginning about your themes being rips... and ONLY after about 15 you decide "hey guys, i'm sorry, i'm gonna be original from now on", it's not gonna cut it man. Just give up, you can make themes all day long, but as long as you post here you will never have any respect.

Bant Veteran Posted September 23, 2003 Veteran Share Posted September 23, 2003 (edited) the proof that i have is c10k..... and alans past, and the rest of his themes. put it together! nothing about his themes are creative at all, except for certain little bits that just find their way in there. If he had never seen c10k, would he have put those images in his theme? no. other themes have since used similar ideas for arrows, i dont mind, im not going to call it stealing, most other authors have enough creativity to put some pixels in a box and come up with the same thing. But not Alan, as he has proved in EVERY one of his 15??? themes.... he is incapable of making a good original theme. sorry for the harsh tone, alan frustrates me, don't take this as a jab at you bangbang. Mem, stop pretending like i am special, somebody might believe you.... i hold just as much weight in my words as the next guy ;) Edited September 23, 2003 by Bant Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/101182-vs-2true/page/3/#findComment-1187759 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbabyte Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 I would have to agree with bant on this one, alan has given everyone more then enough reason to doubt him. Please people..stop trying to defend his nonsense. Just kick him from the board already...it's obvious he's not gettig the point, just let him go. How anyone an defend him by saying, "well he's changing"... umm yeah, is he ever..
