Designest: The American Experience

The American Experience

No, I am not talking about the TV show, but a perfect copy of my website, created by somebody from the US. Great copy! Must have been a very hard experience, since my first template was very confusing, and I am still thinking about creating a new one. The most interesting part is the Apple Powered logo, he probably is a Windows user and hates Apple. So what about the copyright sign under my website? Shall I create a bigger one?

Anyways, I am really sorry that Raymond broke his hand. I hope he gets well soon. problems do happen all the time.

That guy is probably one of the pirates of the caribbeans! He is certainly a windows user, one of those hairy short humanoids!

The poor American guy probably wanted to experience living in a Persian palace for a while, but since he doesn't know how it works, he fell over and broke his hand (probably on a marble staircase).

Forgive him, naïve people are everywhere. He even doesn't have a GSOH.

how did you find his site?

Don't even bother yourself with those online pirates. It's painful when someone copies your work on which you have spent a few weeks or months of your time. It's even worse when you see them modifying your work (basically ruining it). It's like leaving a monkey in Louvre or Hermitage. It would jump about the place and ruin things without knowing the value of it.

I found his link using Google. Sam, that website is exactly a copy of yours!

Hahaha, these two examples are so funny.

I have something a bit similar but not an exact copy. The very funny part is that the guy has stolen my design (Live from the IRIS: http://www.i-gizmo.com/iris/nariman/index.php) and has given the credit to WVS. Check this out:
