    A fricking Moron stole my site logo and graphics and it now looks exactly as my site.

    My site

    His site : mirrorload(dot)net

    Of course, the script is not an exclusive one, but this idiot stole my logo, tagline, all the buttons, graphics (Look at his crappy edit on the main site graphics) and even the favicon.

    I've sent him couple of mails, but he has ignored both.

    Please tell me what can I do to make this thief remove my logo and graphics.

    Thanks

    Contact his host with DMCA letter at HOSTMONSTER.COM and report his domain to ICANN for using fake contact information, i don't think you get many John Smith's from Armenia.

    Don`t worry, report him. Anyone can see the TRUE creator. Alexa Rank + Design + His crappy edits etc.

    Just report, and chill.

    By the way, nice clean design.

    Keep pestering his host with legal action until they force him to change it or be shut down.

    Nice to see some justice. Right on Hostmonster. Let's hope this dude doesn't sign up for another host and put it back up. Hopefully he pooped his pants and won't do it again.

    Wow...hostmonster surely was very fast in acting on OP's complaint and promptly suspended the copycat's account.

    It is so very much heartening to see justice being done.....fairly quickly! :)
