brn2prgrm Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 Hmm, it seems as if I found a loophole in the current U.S. copyright laws so if any Mac skin creator wants to get their works published, feel free to either PM me or contact me via a way in my signature. Also any web sites hoping to get recreated can also contact me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timan Veteran Posted April 23, 2002 Author Veteran Share Posted April 23, 2002 i think we all know apple will not be in like 5 to 10 years thats why they can't afford to have sites have their stuff cause they'll lose money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

altezza Veteran Posted April 23, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 23, 2002 It seems that Apple does not want its trademarked interface to be deliberately used in Windows. It makes people turn away from Apple and join the PC / Windows market. With Windows they will access to bigger selection of hardware and software. In addition, they would use the OsXP or similar theme to Apple's on Windows to make their computer Apple feel, but actually on Windows OS. That's what I thought of.

Chad Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 You guys are hilarious! Ranting and raving about something stupid like this. So because you are stealing apple's ideas and designs, and they want to shut you down, they are the bad guys. You all were asking for it. You had to know that Apple would shut you down sooner or later. They've done it in the past and will keep doing it. And now some of you won't even use your Macs? Keep whining... This is as bad as the lady that sued Mcdonalds because she burnt herself with the coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timan you had to have known from the start that apple was going to get you for that. For all those who aren't going to use their macs anymore boo****inghoo, go protest something important cos whether you use your mac or not Apple still got your money for it.

Timan Veteran Posted April 23, 2002 Author Veteran Share Posted April 23, 2002 the reason i'm getting all ###### about this cause my site was aimed first i'm glad my site was down when he recived this but still i just don't get why apple didn't go after aqua-soft for about a year. they knew about that site and it had 10x more stuff than osxp.net all they said was remove their logo but since apple is dying i see why they need things like this they need all the clients they can get. *they dnot want windows users having a prettier ui eh? edit: lets just leave it at that i don't want to start a os war but everyone thinks what they want so this is what i think.

BroChaos Veteran Posted April 23, 2002 Veteran Share Posted April 23, 2002 hmmm. i can understand apples concern. however, what really bothers me the most about this is the mac community. if you have ever read the forums over at macnn.com, you will see the utter hatred toward any site that helps make xp look like osx. when themexp was hosting apple themes, the people at the macnn forums jumped on them like crazy. several users were seriously upset by the themes. many claimed to have emailed/called apples lawyers over the issue. what was funny is that several of them claimed that the themes looked like sh1t, although i thought that that one theme (forgot the name) was done very well, and was created directly from a mac. then the other thing that ****ed me off about their community was when someone created the XP theme for OSX. it actually recieved many great reviews over at macnn. i thought that was very hypocritical. i love macs, don't get me wrong, but it's the blind extremists for both xp and macOS that seem to cause the trouble. anyways, this is just my take on the macnn forums. anyone else notice the same behaviour?
