It's xanga, not my job, so I don't care.

I mean, with an architech, that's their job, they get paid for it. They have the right to get mad. That's their mortgage...or dinner for their family.

But xanga, it's an online journal, you're not getting paid, and when you realease a skin, you put yourself on the line with having your codes "jocked". I mean, you can get upset, but don't go overboard...you're still online you know...

..that's my opinion.

By the way, technically, most of you guys don't have a copyright to your xangas... You have to process an application, and I doubt you guys have done that.

dont u think they have a lot less to worry about since their stuff is legit and can be taken to the courts as opposed to the net where u can call the dushebags and they wont stop b/c they arent gunna get sued for it

they can get sued for it.

edit:// and no.. you dont have to process an application to it. though the only problem with xanga is that most likely, you've done something to violate xangas rules... like if you removed the banner... so if you try to sue someone, it may backfire on you.

heh i dont think they care.. i mean my xanga is pretty widely known.. one of them had to have come by at least once... but i think the problem is too big.. too many people do it, so i think theyre just like "whatever damnit" now

It's true I guess. But even though someone did steal my layout... and said it was theirs. I don't go to their xanga and say "hey b*tch you stole my layout. take it off" i just say "heh nice layout, thanks for using my layout."

Yeah it took me maybe an hour to put the div layers right and also the layout too...yes it took me awhile. but if someone says that they made it, i just laugh it off heh... cause i know that they didnt make it. and they know that too. but to their friends and the anonymous, the jocker says that they made it so people can be like "wow you did a great job"

but yeah jocker is a bad thing that people shouldn't do... well i know few people who jocked it and felt bad about it but they always get picked on because they always have the baddest layouts. so they jock people's layout and saying it's theirs... but the end up getting bashed by the creators of the layouts.. i know few people cause they did to mine too and also other people's layout from createblog and i wont tell you..well i did told once, but i found out it was my friend O__O;; so i felt bad haha...

So yeah the whole point is that I agree with you. also the part when you said the codes for your stylesheets.. i agree about that too because im trying to get the perfect colors by opening photoshop and the load up is very slow to open it up >.<;; and also the width, the height and such... usually people take about hmm an hour? ehh i started to confuse myself right now, okay i'll stop here >.<;

yeah if i could even see your xanga susan i might be able to compare it to 2nekked's to see how much work u put in compared to 2nekked's. but i guess ur coding is so super 1337 that it keeps crashing on my browser... =T

Well I guess I agree with you. I mean you had to spend time organizing the order of the coding.. and someone else just copies that.. THAT isn't fair. And then the fact of just "modifying" an image is just not cool. I do my own layouts and if I see someone changed it or took out my credit I'd be very angry. I took time to do it. It's not like here take it claim it as your own. You want rights to what you did.

the way i code is different from the way trish codes and is different from the way the next person who posts codes ;o. i align my things the way i like it, and i organize my divs/tables according to what suits ME. for those who don't understand the "art" in coding... just take a look at the source codes of people who own domains (not xanga, cause it's a fact that most xanga users just copy and paste)... you'll see so many differences in style and even "neatness".

keep in mind, there is more than one way to make something look the way it does... so naturally, it's annoying when someone takes the easy route and copies from you... it's like the person wrote down the same answers for an exam you both took -=\.

i think your right. i totally support you and your opinion, because its true, your coding is what makes the layout that you made work! =o) it's something that's so true and people want to just take the whole thing apart that you worked hard for and fixing it a lil bit with their image, makes it theirs just doesnt cut it!! seriously i understand...

yeah trish does have a point. i used to do a lot of html work (i'm starting to get back into it now) and it takes lots of time and effort. i'd be pissed if someone jocked my stuff...

true. very true. i don't get how people can take pride in what others took the time to do and they stole. it's just like basically saying, "Yeah, I stole this. I'm so cool. You guys can't steall like i can cause y`all are wussies." in a hidden language. it's extremely stupid. EXTREMELY stupid.

i used to think that it was okay. but then i started to make my own layouts and coding them and realized how wrong it is because it is hard work, making a layout...the whole process..
