Yeah, thats everaldo's work,
I am pretty sure that it is a rip, is there an admin that will e-mail them, or shall I do it?

Well, on the subject of rips...
A thread was posted a few days ago, concerning some rips over at themexp.org, while none of the ripped items were mine, I did take it upon myself to stand up, and send a letter to the site administrator at themexp.org
This was done on Saturday, 16th and as of now, 2 of the 3 rips are still posted and themexp.org . Now, just to add more insult to the pot, not only has the admin there ignored my email, but I also made 2 posts in their forums about this. One in the "Theme Discussion" area... (appropriate place I believe) and one in the "Suggestions and Site Problems" area. They deleted the one from the Theme Discussion area, without responding. Obviously, they don't want one of the main thread topics littered with FACTS about how they run their site and condone ripping.
Please see this thread, https://www.wincustomize.com/msgboard.asp?id=177652&BID=WC&page=1#180203 , #16 ,for the details of the email that I sent
to Greg. I simply copied and pasted this email into their message base as well.
Jafo, maybe you have better luck with them, but in my book, Greg has demonstrated a total lack of responsibilty.

| 11 by Admin Jafo - 8/15/2003 5:37:36 PM Guys....the way to deal with issues such as this is to contact their site admin/s with links to the rip and the original and politely ask for them to look into/resolve the issue. Greg at ThemeXP is very good at responding and dealing with these rips....every site gets them inadvertently and it's not necessarily a fault with a particular site, just that things sometimes slip through before they are spotted... |

I could ignore it okay... but, would you ignore it if it were your artwork that were being ripped?

Phoon....deleted your last....it messed up the page...
If anyone wants me to have a go contacting Greg about any of your stuff 'ripped' on themeXP...just email me the links direct to both the original and the rip and I'll contact Greg for you...
