Design Thief OMG!! Help me

Hi Friends,

Please advice me what to do... one of guy came to me to have his website design by me...I design mock up for him he liked that too in fact he loved that but because of money he didn't gave me money(which I think now was an excuse) I was ok with that as he was asking 15 page website with flash in 1500 INR can you believe the standard of people...and how after few days I checked his domain and I was shocked that guy copied my design and jut change the colors and when I asked him he was not accepting this means see the limits of lie of guys speaking such a BIG LIE on face.Dude I design that design and just changing the color will not make that your creativity and your design.
(I wish I could give him tight slap on his face.)

So, furstated with that guy and his lies that I was assuming that there should be some copyright law too in the Creative field too.Because it is totally wrong stealing someone's creativity and hard work.(Although I abuse him a lot I cursed him a lot as he was also my friend which is more hurting).

But I wonder that so many negative and wrong people are around you ...they are ready to kill you they are ready to ditch they are so selfish that they are ready to do anything just to get success in life but have they ever think that on the cost of success what they are losing?? they are losing the self respect, Honesty , reputation and very important friends..like with my SO-CALLED FRIEND...he lost my friendship,my respect and now I just abuse him for me he is just THIEF...but on every serious note...We should have some copyright law on design too, so that designers like me can claim the cost of the work they done.

Well he get my design traced from some low cost designer(who are zero in very thing but people consider tham coz they charge 0 too for there work) and I feel so shamed that how his designer after getting the original design coudnt able to give the quality to the design.Shame on both the designer and this guy(THIEF)

Hmmm, very sad and feeling bad not bcause he just stole your work but he was your friend. Even I have seen my friends layout being stolen and used. There must be some way out to overcome such issues.

Hey.. very nice to see you maintain a blog... im sure some day you will reach the likes of pearsonified.com or dailyseoblog.com or theblogstudio.com etc...

How good are you design skills? Do you have any online portfolio or something? I would love to take a look at your designs....

Hello,

The site is very similar and yes he stole your design. In the Us there is a such thing as Intellectual Property.. and you do have a case.. I would pursue... I always have my clients sign a contract and they agree if they do not choose my prototype they cannot duplicate or copy.. get a lawyer and have a contract formatted to use in the future to protect yourself... nice work!

Hi Naina.

I looked at you work and the work done on ewebchamp. There is no doubt he stole you idea and design, which is very bad and depressing too for you.

Apart from this, May I know, are you using CMS to make you websites??

I am a CMS designer. And I found your work very good. If you are interested in working with me to make some serious money.

Please do not mix this with the advertisements like make money at hom etc etc all that crap.

I work in CMS to make websites and I am only guessing by looking at you mock work that its a CMS work also.

If you are interested, We can talk, have a deal and can start working.

I am a business though but I do this Web site building only for side pocket money.

Even if you don't want to work. Do leave a reply on any of my blogs.

I will be thankful to you.

Regards
Vibhor Malik
