The fact is, she won't own up to what she did was wrong. She called out Emberfly (oh god) when he screenshoted the Hollister Co. website layout and disqualified him from running for ___ of the Month even though he coded his own stuff. She also kicked Mike (oh god, again) off staff for blatantly stealing stuff from Deviantart. So since she's friends with you Jusun, this is acceptable, and she just needs a talking to? I don't think so.


Spencer, id appreciate if you dont talk on my behalf especially when you dont know what youre talking about. this is what i had to said about mike backstage (topic #195920):

hey guys.

i know. i havent been active at all and some of you guys will be wondering why i am here and what gives me the right ot say anything at all considering my long and very frequent absences. but if you could put that aside, id like to say a few things about this matter.

i dont know mike and never talked to him on aim so what i am about to say is strictly from a bystander's point of view. i dont think anyone here can argue with me when i say that mike has contributed A LOT to createblog. in essence, its people like mike who contribute regularly with quality content that keep this site going.

i do understand that some of the layouts he made used images that he did not get prior consent to. but honestly, can anyone here say that they have never done the same in the past, when they themselves were aspiring web designers? i have ("jocked") in the past, and im sure most of you, if not all, have done the same. so don't you think it's a bit hypocritical to condemn him so harshly? we've all been down that road, and we've all learned from it. so why not him, why cant we give him a second chance (that we all got, and that he deserves)?

also. a layout is so much more than an image that's "jocked". its code, images, and overall presentation coming together that create a quality layout. just because you have the highest of quality images do not necessarily translate to a quality layout. in that regards, dont you think a layout deserves to be considered in all of its aspects (and not just by an offending image)? the layout can always be preserved, and the image replaced for another that is original, don't you agree?

i dont know. in the end, what i want to stress is this: we are all human beings, and we all make mistakes. mike may have made a mistake.. lets help it be for the better, and not get caught up in the finger pointing that all of us know deep inside we were all guilty of one time or another.

plus. to lose someone like mike would be detrimental to createblog; we need quality designers like him.
