~Binary is best~

they're deleting again

Well, I got here too late to see the fun, but at least it's over, or so we hope...

Good to see you back Weadah, and best of luck to you.

I did screencap the main page. It'll be available if needed.

i hope they are serious about redoing their pages, the last post in their guestbook shows the date 27.06.2002 22:06. though they deleted the recent posts, they haven't changed from the asylum colors

the wallpaper is still up with one of weadah's sig on it - the "e" of weadah plainly showing underneath - http://home.arcor.de/teamzenith/jpg/zenith_wallpaper4.jpg

and still I get the '404' page withthe annoying shade of blue. Could one of the asylumites host this image on their own server to show us these people's bad work...please?

Does it really make any sense - now that they *seem* to be taking the stuff down - to keep passing around sreenshots of it?

I mean....if it's not there, let it go....

@DL: I just wanted to see the quality of the
rip. I mean that not positive...

I saw lot of copied work so I wanted to see
it...

~Xdreamer.ch~

Just seems kinda like slowing down to gawk at a car wreck (not to help or anything...just to see...)....

~shrug~

Except in this case, you get all the fun without the annoying horns honking from behind you!

~HONK~

hmm...sorry didn't get the point :-(

He meant your wasting your time with the screen shots.

ok, they deleted the gb entries again.

CELL 557

Sorry so long with the reply, been away. I agree with DL though.. kinda. If they're being good, taking the stuff down, not ripping someone else or something then I don't think it would further the good by posting screencaps of the bad in a public forum. Did that make sense? Eh, doesn't matter, it did to me.

I just think DL needed something else to rag about.


I seem no harm in sharing a screen cap so the people who missed the envious rip can see just how much the the rippers liked weedah's work.

EG

Yup. Did to me =D

Looks like another win for the Asylum, yah? 'least for now anyways. I will be watching to see what they replace it with, but if they do the right thing (and I'm hoping they do) then this is an end to it.

Just want to thank y'all again for your input, words and support on this - we've brought down that whole site - So go Us! =D In many ways it's a shame but there's no excuse. House your content in stolen work and get caught, you lose the lot. Not worth the risk imo.

So yah, anyways - Thanks guys, really do appreciate it.

Weadz

Just glad to see you back Weadah

*walks in with a case of Premium Izzay Cigars* Looks like I missed all the fun? Nahh, just in time for the partay! *hands out cigs and pears*

so did anyone else fall trap to looking at the index? http://home.arcor.de/teamzenith/
on that page is a folder called blackout. It opened about 15 windows all bouncing around my screen (real fast). I could not even get Windows to close them. IE eventually crashed. Not sure if it was a joke or some serious piece of crap but shit, it scared the shitten shit out of me.

Some executables in there too. The one you talked about looks like a javascript that just opens the same window over and over and over. If you turn java off you can see the source. Kinda looks like they might have had their own design at some point too. Colors look strangely familiar though. Seems iGrafx is their graphics tool, never heard of it till just now. Learn something new every day. Thanks for link, it was briefly entertaining.

hmmmmm...now where have I seen those colours before?

the colours are not that important....i think the most important thing is, that they try a own page

i mean there are thousands of pages which have a white bg....

CELL 557

true, true, but that particular colour scheme is unique to the doc, and really should only be used with his permission, but beside the point

I am sorry to hear someone ripped your site, Weadah. I checked their site a few moments ago and got nothing but a blank white screen.

I'm just glad this thing is down. It's cool we could help out the Wead man!

(Hmmm... Moth, you're a bug too. Nice to meet ya)

. . : slicePuzzle

While the colors strongly resemble these, you can't say that they are unique to Doc. The particular hues are somewhat less common, but orange/blue color schemes abound....

Nice to meet you too, Bugimus.

Sorry to interupt but can you really .. take claim to a bunch of colour's?
no one made these colours they just put them togther... so to be honest you cant.. or can you?

i don't think you can

No. That's like trying to patent a scent (perfume).

Trigger: Interesting question. Technically you can't copyright individual words but once you put them together in a certain fashion then they become copyrightable. Some of the bigger cases of pirated sites:
http://www.pirated-sites.com/archive/ [nice redesign much better]

have also included the theft of a distinctive combination of colours (not just the colour but the way they are used on the page) esp. when there hasn't been any lifting of the code or theft of graphics (check out the eBay rips).

ok.... so *ponders now*
we going to go with..... you can Sort of Copyright a collection of colour's?

but given all due respect
who's going to try and sue some one for using a bunch of colours
i think there lawyers going to laugh at them and tell them to go get a life right?

how many web colours are there?
compared to how many sites there are?
theres got to be at least 2 sites with the same colour does that mean one of thems "ripping" from the other??


mabye you can Copyright them legaly ....... but can you honestly take legal action?
whos going to bother? and i've seen quite a few of the sig sites of the Inmates how many of you actualy asked the Doc's Permisson to use "his" colour scheme?
does that mena there ripping as well?


then you find some one else whos doing it , is anyone going to email the webmaser of the "offending" site because they have a similar colour scheme? and is there webmaster likley to do anything but tell them where to go and laugh??

i know i may of gone a bit of topic and on a bit of a rant but there my views

I still feel that anyone who clams ownership to a set bunch of colours grouped togther is a fool ... but thats just my opinon

Thanks
Trigger

Trigger: All good points and on its own I don't think the use of a set of colours would be something someone would unleash the lawyers for but if there were other things involved (like layout for example) I suspect you'd be able to find a corporate lwayer who'd be happy to try that in a court of law. The colours and how they are used are an extremely important aspect of corporate (or any other kind) identity. If you were looking to pass your site off as a more successful competitor the colour scheme would be one of the first things you'd try and mimic.

Its an interesting question but possibly one that doesn't have a simple answer.

Emps i agree with you totaly on if it's a simliar layout
but the point raised here was that some one was complaing they where using similar colours and not the way they where used
