07/19/2001 Entry: "7/19 Copycat"

Does this look familiar? I wrote the person in question and received a very nasty email in response stating "she had never been to my site" and that "couldn't it be possible for her to come up with the same idea". My gosh, she copied my text WORD FOR WORD (though I have since updated my site with different wording). The design is obviously "inspired" by my site also. It's too bad people will never learn.

Grrrrr...I'm so sorry Leah! That is so frustrating!! But ya know, she's good at copying...obviously...but that's all she's got going for herself. Let's just hope her conscience kicks in at some point.
BTW, thanks for commenting over at my blog! I'm so excited to finally have comments on my site. That's one of the big things I was missing with the journal on my other site! Hope you have a good day :) Try not to think about the copy cat too much!

OH MY GOODNESS LEAH!!!! That is horrible! It sure looks to me like she took your design and redid it a little and reuploaded it...her graphics are very bad and you can tell they were compressed more than they should be. Sheesh, when will people learn!?!??!?!? I'm so sorry for this hon!

Good grief! I can't believe this happened again! Some people just don't have a clue apparently. I am so sorry you have to go through this again. ((hugs))

It sure does look familiar. Did you ask her if she plays the Sims? Seriously, sorry that this is happening again.

Thanks everyone! Yeah, I find it hilarious that she can claim to have never been to my site.

LOL Sue, I still think of that Sims episode and gag!

Oh my goodness, Leah! I'm so sorry that this crap just keeps on happening to you. Unbelievable!
I just found a site, that had copied my complete resource page (word for word, linkbutton for linkbutton!) from my previous design. I did let it slide, because that's all it was, but what this girl has done to you is just outrageous! Never been to your site??? give me a break! Ignorant people!
