As many of u know, or may not know, I am currently working on version 3 of my website. This newest version is going to be huge, with all new design, temlate modifications and a whole new level of intergration with vbulletin
I am currently payin Chen to do some custom php coding for the forum, yay!
Anyway, after I release v3, I am going to release our current board design as a free style available for download. Just thought people might be interested in knowing that
hey... this might be a very good style for my site . My site is XP related . But it wont be released for awhile... but hey.. saves me from having to do all the buttons and such myself .
yeah but they havn't come after yours, so do they really care?
Trust me they care. I had to redo a site that had purchased a xp theme from Sin (Not his fault, they wanted it). Microsoft had contacted them giving them 3 days to remove it before legal action was going to be taken. They had to close their business down until they could redo it all. This is why I posted what I did above. After all that I would hate to see this become a widespread problem with MS. If your site is not XP related, or fall under the free use act it is copyright infringement.
Originally posted by Mystic Stylez would that same rule apply to the apple style that was made?
Microsoft is known for being very aggressive with the technical community. Apple is much more relaxed and open.....
... afterall, what harm can a XP buttons in a forum do to Microsoft? Nothing, of course, but when you are one of the world's richest companies and a team of lawyers, you can bully any and everyone......
I would like to see it released Sinecure, users could always use it as a secondary style. I am sure Microsoft if not going to register just to look at your styles to make sure you don't have an XP style (of course, stranger things have happened ).
hmm....I wouldn't want to take a chance like that, but how many sites are using XP-styled buttons so far? There's got to be more than what Microsoft can find.
