Yes, but earlier in this thread, it is stated that the site is Korean.

Hum, seems five of my blinds are there, not to mention the rest of the suites. 4 have me credited by real name (not starone) and the last one has no visual credit given. No contact for permission of upload asked. Lots of blinds from WC on there.

Well, I'm sort of flattered that my work was worth ripping, but angry as hell at the same time. They have one of my cursors and my wall.

Oh, this helped me a lot, so hopefully it will help other non-korean speakers here too..

I doubt that's the case Styl, as they have two of my skins on there and each is under a different name - grayhaze and my real name.

I shall be taking action immediately. The b*stards even kept the copyright message and logos in the screenshots! >

That is what I mean, they didn't change the screenshot etc. They really have A LOT of wb's there and the work to get them there would be HUGE!
I really think that they are using a script, probably changed the name thingy on 1 date.

So far I have found 8 of my Logons. All of them submited by someone name REDsun with an email addy sthan70@msn .com
None of the designs are credited to me, but yet they used my original screenshot >
This freaking idiot has 125 designs in his gallery and none of them are his. This s**t really burns me up > >

Has anyone had any success getting their skins off that site? Even two of my blinds are there(imagine that) I don't understand why they would waste their webspace serving up stolen goods, when you can come here and get quality skins by the original authors Don't these buttheads know that this is THE SITE on the internet for skins?? What fools > If I wanted my real name on my skins I would have put it there

It does earlier and the place where it does the plentifully late bedspread.
It raises the picture in the different data thread and it does not link not to be,
It uses the image box and when from it is linked the picture.
It writes and to press it is pressed the left side lower part side image box and.
The detailed direction for use when it is seen a help from the image box.
The picture upload dosage is 3 mega.
The image box joins and it will be able to use.
Joining hour child D and password, name (it writes nickname, it becomes.) Only this mail address
It is written and. Of course untrue information (? ) With it joins and it becomes.
To the minute when it raises a course thanks it gives.

I just copied and pasted that from a page I found on that site, and from what I can make out, it gives instructions to the user, how to download with someone's username and email address.

or.....

"It uses the image box and when from it is linked the picture."

Does this perhaps mean they are deep linking to the site?

The last few lines appear to be something about joining with a fake name perhaps?
Dunno what the hell the "late bedspread" means >

sorry...typo, I edited

sorry.. broken link, just take my word for it.... it was some really strange sh*t, about the rules of using their site. If you're interested, it's about the second column down on the left, in the site details section.
