Good thing they included that super awesome streaming audio widget so I would have something to listen to while I looked at the website. I wonder whose music they stole?

Ok, but why the masked computer criminal stock photo? I know the adage "all posts should have an image", but that image always make me cringe.

It's not a dickhead move to send a C&D since they didn't bother to ask you if they could rip you off. It's not like it was 'inspired' by. They took it.

looking at the about page, seems like some Indian college kids cloned it for their festival

Wow. What a shame. Seems another webpage was totally ripped off. Here’s another example on the same website: Original: http://www.kiterungame.com/ Clone: http://www.aranya13.com/aranya/app/index.html

Wow indeed! Thanks for the links.

Absolutely. I would say shame them. These are college kids, who are learning ethics. This should not under radar. 10 kids ripping your website and claiming their own. It is your hard work.

True! Thank you!

If they put it in a programming/design portfolio I'd be pissed otherwise it's not such a big deal. But they should leave your credits in instead of stripping them out...

I hope employers are aware of this stuff though. Would be sad to hire someone based on a site portfolio that was actually a bunch of ripoffs. I guess that's the employer's loss then though, & they need to learn how to be better at vetting candidates.

Page not found anymore? Guess they got the heat and took it down.

Edit: that link above the image (ie http://blog.mirohristov.com/www.aranya13.com/aranya/) is what's broken..

And seriously... that music?

Fixed. Thanks!
