Site owner stealing other site owners GFX !?

This is warez, as other ppl said
He maybe hasn't ripped it from you, he maybe found the same icons set on net?

As far as this whole high and mighty debate goes about webmasters helping other webmasters, respect and most being university students or well educated was once very much the case but times change.

A few years ago you had to have a lot of skill, knowledge and help from others to start a site. You couldn't just upload a script. Enter a chosen admin name and password and click install or click on import theme if you fancied a re-design or new look. The only way to start, run and customize a site was with the help of others.

Traffic was also required a lot more work. It wasn't just a case of remote upload some links to another host and submit to DDL's.

Not really.

A few years ago if you had a little knowledge, upload kDDL, add recent searches, and you got yourself 20+k google within a few weeks.

If you didn't know how to do that (recent searches was fairly unknown) install 0daydb, leech some posts, and start submitting to Katz & Phaze, and you got yourself 10k uniques within 2 weeks as well.

It's actually a lot harder to get traffic nowdays. Katz sends less, Phaze sends less, and google sucks these days.

Ontopic: Who cares if he stole some gfx. Be proud

Sorry jason for saying you specifically. Since you assumed that I was only in warez for the money was the reason I assumed you were in it for money.

I like to think the sites that last for years are governed by knowledgable admins. So when I see a site that's been around for 5 months (even if that's still young) I expect more from an admin. That's the reason I am so against it. I don't really care about 2 pictures, but it has to be bigger then that. Because if he can't make 2 small images, imagine all the other stuff he rips.

And I'm still sticking with my comment that there's webmasters still in it for the general good and not making money, we just need to find each other.
