Unwritten-lyts jocking from cb, recently edited Options

[Blaqheartedstar]

Its been a while since i made any new topics... feel like a total noob again, feel free to move this where ever it really belongs
will the change in format its confusing
anyway anybody has heard of unwritten-lyts.net? if so then you'll know they jock content from from CB, and other popular sites.
Examples:
This layout's background was stolen from gigabyte's DIV
This layout's background was stolen from Atomic Affliction's Music DIV
This layout's background was stolen from Luku's DIV
This layout's background was stolen from Atomic Affliction's DIV

I'm sure theres more content thats jocked from CB user's layouts but the ones above is all that i found.

They also stole from atomic affliction
Sanrio Comment boxes was stolen from Atomic Affliction
Summer Comment boxes was stolen from Atomic Affliction

I've tried contacting them about it, to receive no answer back even if their contact page states the following

have any questions or concerns? want to be advertisted? or even work for unwritten layouts, email all your questions to our secretary contact@unwritten-lyts.net

One way to help stop your content from being stolen is to tag your work in places where they can't be erased or tagged over. It helps greatly reduce the amount of thefts to graphics and layouts we make and post here.

Edited
their new DIV section is full of layouts from CB
check it out here

Ahem, sorry about the move-hopping there but I decided on the Feedback forum.

Unfortunately, a lot of amateur sites decide they can't be bothered to put in the effort and create layouts and scripts themselves and so steal from better internet resource sites. I believe that Jusun (CB's creator) has already had several legal issues with regards to stolen content - this is just another example.

There's not much we can do short of contacting the site webmaster - as you have done - and hoping that having been found out, he will take down that which is not his to redistribute. Other than that, it's up to Jusun and the webmaster at Atomic Affliction as to whether they both wish to pursue things further.

Nice catch though - Now that you've found this site out, their reputation is down the pan with the designing community.

[Blaqheartedstar]

what is so stupid about it is that myspacepro forums offers freebies to huge sites that don't make their own content.
If i wasn't so into the fact that I like my site to be on content made by me, i would surely purchase packs and grab freebies.

Also thanks for the move.

[S-Majere]

Yeah, it's pretty unfair. These 'leacher-sites' have no credibility whatsoever.

[superstitious]

I just left the following comment:
"Way to steal layouts from other sites. I'm glad to see that you are so proud of posting jocked content. We'll make sure to spread the word around about the lack of integrity this site appears to endorse."

[tokyo-rose]

I tried to leave a comment that says, "Way to jock from CreateBlog just because you're not talented or honest enough to create your own work," but I got the "invalid friend ID" message. Loser must have shut their MySpace down now that they've been found out. Baha.

[libertie]

^Haha, you guys are awesome. Ah well, they're cowards anyway I guess.

Seriously, I don't think they realize how closely knit the design community is. Their credibility is completely gone. Leeching traffic away from CB is a pointless effort anyway, because more people are going to come here based on Google ranks anyway. It's just an annoyance that a person or group of people can be so immature as to try to benefit from another site's success by copying them.

[IVIike]

I can't tell you how amny times we have brought jocking up, but seriously if Ju-Sun takes action against everyone it would be a huge mess

[schizo]

Why did they have to take so much of my stuff? I have seriously tried everything to get them to at least respond to me and I've gotten nothing. The problem isn't necessarily that I keep submitting to CB...Most of the stuff they took from me isn't even on here. I've actually threatened legal action and they just ignored that too. I even reported them to their host and got them suspended for about an hour, but that obviously didn't do much...

[xoxo_proud]

I informed Atomic of the jocking. I figure all we can do is tell the designers of the layouts and let them handle it (if they want to).

But this is horrible. Jockers are lower than dirt.

[karmakiller]

SPAM THEM!

Not the first, and definitely not the last, time.

[Blaqheartedstar]

lol, yeah
or we can all contact their host and suspend them

[S-Majere]

Why did they have to take so much of my

Because you're awesome!

Site Temporarily Disabled
This site has been temporarily disabled. If you are the owner of the site, please contact customer care.

/sniggers

[karmakiller]

Yay ^5's all around.

[synatribe]

they are called unwritten for a reason, lol jk, but their site is temporarily disablefd :[ i wanted to spam :]

[schizo]

Yay for being disabled! I wonder how long that'll last...

[Amaranthus]

Oh, is that why it wont come up when I click on it?

[Amaranthus]

Funny, I just requested their myspace account.
The Irony.

[none345678]

This place has a lot of stuff from here too

http://www.itsirrational.com/

alotta stuff from schizo was taken it seems

=/

[Mango-Butter]

^Thats patehtic, they didn't even leave a disclaimer. Anyway, there isn't really anything we can do about things like this.

[synatribe]

schizo's just to good, lol :]

They're stealing from http://twistedd.com/ to

I knew those comment boxes looked familiar.

[S-Majere]

They all suck. They're all the same. They can never be as good as those they steal from.

RAWR

Yeah. I left her Irrational a hate comment. Makes me feel a little better. But I can't believe people would do that. It's just wrong.

[S-Majere]

RAWR

Generic leecher sites.

There's a theory somewhere in all this.

[xoxo_proud]

Why do itsirrational and twistedd look EXACTLY the same? O_o

That's what I was wondering. But I have no idea

[schizo]

Well twistedd steals from other people too (they had my divs up for awhile), so it doesn't really make itsirrational stealing from them seem as bad. Plus, they responded to me and offered to credit which is more than most people do. It's just a never ending chain of stealing. Where I got involved, I'll never understand.

[synatribe]

seriously I can tell right off the bat who steels and who dosent, its just freakin retarded

[S-Majere]

It looks like the site's back up, but on the plus side I can't see any of CB's submitted layouts on their pages. There are still stolen comment boxes and codes, though.

[emberfly]

^ many of their resource pages are down.

[Blaqheartedstar]

edited. Thanks for helping out.

[1angel3]

I hate all these graphic myspace sites. They all look alike, set up the same, and have the same style. Also they steal. You know how many times I've seen a layout like this?

[Blaqheartedstar]

^ that may have been bought Myspacepros's users sell their layouts to huge sites like ego-box, i'm guessing hoodskills and other sites.

[SharperMyspace]

in itsirrational's credit page, they have a link to the sites they have stolen from... what losers!

[Blaqheartedstar]

Cb won't let me post this linked
this layout's background ( http://itsirrational.com/layoutpreviews/skinny/layout11.html ) was stolen from Atomic Affliction's Music DIV ( http://www.atomicaffliction.com/div/basic18.htm )
this layout's background ( http://itsirrational.com/layouts/lyts10.php ) was stolen from Atomic Affliction's DIV ( http://www.atomicaffliction.com/div/basic18.htm )

[vogueXdirge]

To most of these 'myspace resource' sites their idea of gathering resources is going to photobucket and typing in a few keywords.

Go ahead do it yourself. Type in 'Scene', 'Diamond', 'Music', etc and see what you get. Everything on those sites can be found right on photobucket. Not to mention almost all of their photography are pictures taken from actual artists on Deviantart, people that took time and effort to take or make the picture.

Sure they have hundreds of resources, but 95% of it are from third parties.

[schizo]

And you know what makes me laugh? I actually forgot about Unwritten until this was bumped, so I went back and found myself reading their "About Unwritten" page. This is what they wrote:

"Unwritten Layouts strives to provide new, fresh, and only original content made by our own dedicated team, every day."



As for itsirrational, they actually talked to me about using my div layouts for backgrounds. I told them that as long as they credit and don't take the WHOLE layout, it's ok.

[outragedhope]

Shocking....that site(unwritten) is claimed to be one of the best,because of its loads of content and it gets a ton of visitors but i guess we all know why it has so much content...

[Splek]

f**k that "unwritten" site, little f**ks...

its good you all take legal action, i used to be a spammer before i retired (just on MySpace) maby i can hit them up...

BLAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[Citra]

I bet this is why their myspace got deleted! they got deleted on myspace a few weeks ago. they had 700,000 friends too, haha sucks but he deserved it.

[Blaqheartedstar]

lol. Its one thing to see the same layout or graphics (glitters) on several different myspace resource sites because people purchase them. but to take them from other sites/Createblog is just ehh... RETARDED.

[synatribe]

there are new jockers
static layouts, hb lyts , transcipts, default.com, bebop and sunshine are all own by the same people and thats why all their content is the same, but I dont understand why anyone would need so many domains but anyways

http://www.static-layouts.com/page.php?id=65 <--- stolen from gigalays.info

http://hblyts.com/about-me-headers.php <-- about me headers also stolen from gigalays

gigalays seems to be a helpless victim :]

[heyo-captain-jac...]

When are people going to figure out that we always know when we're stolen from?

[synatribe]

When are people going to figure out that we always know when we're stolen from?

haha I really dont know :]

[Blaqheartedstar]

When are people going to figure out that we always know when we're stolen from?

lol they think they are totally gonna get away with it.

[sarahann]

sunshinee.com doesn't steal/jock do they?

[libertie]

^Sorry, that URL doesn't work for me. =\

[Blaqheartedstar]

sunshinee.com doesn't steal/jock do they?

anything in particular you see that may prove to jocking?

[xlovedxhatedx]

they have schizo's website in their credits http://www.itsirrational.com/credits.php

Okay so whats actually funny is the link,leads to links where they jock from.and theyre telling people to 'check them out'.
I dont know about the genious at unwritten,but if I were a jocker,which,im NOT,I wouldnt post links to where I jocked from.theyre giving theirselves away.I contacted their host,they were only shutoff for 10 minutes.
Talk about unfair.

[yellowxgirl]

does anyone else besides me find it ironic that the irrational layout previews, which all use jocked images, have big comment boxes that say "i took a layout"


...... at least i laughed a bit xD

[HeartOfPandora]

This is just getting friggin' ridiculous. Eventually we're not going to know who made what unless it's got their name rank & serial number stamped all over every single graphic and embedded into every code.

Good lord.

Some days I just don't want to be a designer, because someone somewhere is gonna steal it all eventually.

I have a photomanip on deviantArt and the other day I saw it as Flair on Facebook. Facebook!!! Who does that?! Who takes a work of art (okay I'll admit, it was crap but it was the first thing I ever did) and turns it into Facebook crap? People spend hours, sometimes days of their lives working on things only to have someone else claim it as a "photography layout" on some stolen layout site?

We might as well just stop making things...then they won't have anything to steal! >_<

Argh.

//edit// And since when did "layouts" like this qualify as creativity? Any idiot with a Photobucket could do that...

...oh, wait...that's all that site is...and idiot with a Photobucket.

*much anger*
