    I get credit by trying to be as original as I can, and honest, and I don't understand that last line. Watch my words for what? I'm saving the CH from any potential copyright issues in the future and trying to help the community by blacklisting frauds.

    Save them by showing them your certificate and your copyright for using the arcs, the shadows, thick strokes and other web 2 elements, which are, btw 'non' used by million of designers, so you must have invented them. Also merging the letters, and other of your special original designs you make. Clap-clap! How original! And please, don't treat and talk to other members like you're above them. It looks kind of childish.

    p.s. community says 'thanks'

    Zmaja, I meant 'original' in the context of not totally ripping an entire design from a damn website. You know, where the 'designer' actually thinks about what he/she wants and goes about making t happen, as opposed to browing the net for something you, as a designer, think will make you some quick money while also putting the contest holder at risk.

    I think, you're missing my whole point of 'original' which, in my context, meant 'not stealing'.

    I don't think he is talking down to you, I think he is just saying what a lot of other people think too.

    There's a difference between using design features on your work and actually copying and pasting a whole logo into photoshop and changing the hue, though.

    The thing that seems to be annoying Dusty (and myself tbh) is the sheer lack of thought you gave to the trouble you could get the contest holder into. If there hadn't been an eagle-eyed member to spot that you stole it, then you may very well have won the contest. The logo would then appear on the CH's site and of course they are oblivious to any wrong-doing.

    I just think it sucks, man. You do good work, we've all seen that you can design but when you do things like this, it makes people suspect you in the future. How can anybody believe that your past and future work is all 100% your own work?

    You have a stupid and selfish attitude. Law degrees? I don't need a degree to understand this level of common sense.

    Thanks for clarifying what I was trying to say, Davey.

    For those that are interested:

    [​IMG]

    Obviously it's not a copy/paste job, but I'd say he was more than a little "inspired"...

    Bad show imo.

    EDIT: Nice work there DaveyBoy ;)

    I have to say, I'm disgusted with the initial design theft, but the fact that zmaja can't simply apologise and move on is a disgrace.

    Hate to break it to you zmaja, but yes, DustyDog is above you, as is everyone on this forum that uses their own, unique material and concepts.
