I don't understand why your users, who I do not believe profit from this site, have an incentive to post content they take from other sites.

I have found multiple postings on this site, which I know to be hijacked from other sites.

In one case the hijacked image, was mapped to the the wrong block of code (they were both hijacked from the same site).

Does this site encourage theft, in some way?
The rules disallow the posting of content, for which the poster does not own the rights?
So why so much stolen content?
What is it about this site, and its users, that leads to so much of this behavior?

It does hurt the credibility of the site.

CreateBlog does not accept stolen or jocked work. In fact, some of our Design Staff members very recently rejected 98 graphics that were discovered to be stolen from LiveJournal. Please link to examples of jocked material, the staff will check it out, and the work will be rejected accordingly if it's true that it was jocked.

Also, the layout submission guidelines state that jocked work is not accepted.
