YahoKa Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 Come on give it up people. Who is the designer/author of the neowin site anyways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crackhbob Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 Just figured I'd throw in that the main page isn't running off of vBulletin.. that's just the forums script. And as for the designers go, you've been reading their previous posts... look at the bottom of the main neowin page. :) Design by Neobond & Redmak, Coding by Tingle And I do want to take the time to tell you three that the design and efficiency of this ENTIRE site is just outstanding!

Keldyn Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 This is shameful. Whilst i am unsure what we can do about this, it is quite clear that it was intentionally/deliberately ripped from neowin. An odd compliment if you will, but clearly alot of work has gone into making neowin what it is and it is sad to see that people like this can just take all that hard work and use it like it is their own. :( P.S. Neowin rocks. Don't settle for cheap imitations baby !! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananaMan Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 They've ripped of the World Of Aqua icon set too. Click one of their stupid trojans and you'll see it down the bottom of the page. What a horrible page. They so ripped Neowin off, but what disgusts me more so that's it's a page dedicated to trojans! Trojans are for script kiddies! Bleh!

altezza Veteran Posted March 24, 2002 Veteran Share Posted March 24, 2002 Okay, while this is considerably an issue for our our beloved Neowin community...let's leave this matter in the hands of Redmak and Neobond who will solve this problem.

Weasel Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 BTW, they are using phpBB version 2, NOT vBulletin. It's kind of like vBulletin, except it's free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StimpyX Posted March 24, 2002 Share Posted March 24, 2002 I guess I'm trying to figure out what all the hubub over this is for. If I was the admins/devs here I'd be more than PO'd for the near duplication of Neowin's home page layout etc (so they're not creative design-wise and took someone elses look wholesale -- how unusual for the Web), but as Weasel notes they are not using the same backend for their bulletin board system, and apparently make a straight b-line to it for comments off the front page (so unlikely they're using anything approximating the code on Neowin). It's also NOT a site promoting trojans. Look at their "about" statement. I say let Neobond and company handle things from here on in, and leash up the hounds for another hunt...
