The other website, although having wooden background rounded boxes and black colors is not identical to your website. You could say it was inspired by your website but certainly it is not same. At least that my viewing of the website today, 2nd of April 08.

You cannot copyright the rounded boxes and wooden background. This guy’s wooded background is back and different from yours. So you have nothing to complain about I am afraid.

Blah, your wood background is another rip from http://www.shanemielke.com/graphics_06/bg_wood.jpg with a little editing using brightness & contrast, they know about that anyway.

This happens so much and it sucks. I’m glad to see you got attention to this. People should be called out for copying.

Enjoy vacation!

Good design immitate. Great design innovate.
Good design like your site and the others (mention by Mike) do immitate, and the other job is “optimized” what you’ve done. In functionality i do feel revota have improved your design. What i’m trying to say is, your design, that revota guys and the others have enrich the “nature” style design, push them to the limit.

I am agree with David Sandusky.
Ready or not the design industry era is coming. And it would be more and more copycat than yesterday. The winner is the one with uniqueness. And it’s an honor for you that you have a “free” clone.

Keep rocking man!

I think you are getting a nice compliment if they are in fact copying you. Build a reputation of designs that get copied and you might sell templates – that is a personal brand.

I’m sorry to hear about that, this is 100% rip off. I see this happening more and more often. Many popular websites are being ripped off by “designers” that feel there’s no penalties for their actions. I also have some experience with so called “designers”. Send them an e-mail to change the design or report them to the cssgalleries…

Yes but it’s not about the idea with wood background, it’s about the layout, colors, content ;p
