[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PROBEX:
Anyway I'm not going to sit and argue all day about weather or not this was ripped from me it quite obvious that over 50+% of that skin is my work and the dialer is 60+% my work [as poorlyduck did the original dialer] that was reskinned by me [that I gave him full credit for in my release] all it would have taken was a PM asking for my permision... I think the big problem I have... as well as others have is when you make something from scratch and put hours and hours into it to contribute to a community and then some hack come along and in 1/2 the time takes your hard work and claims that it is thiers just by hiding the identifiying things that made it specail to the original designer makes me sick to my stomach. I realize that there is very little protection for graphic designers on the internet but I do know that in the original post on SPJ it clearly states that these downloads can not be reposted on other websites without the approval of the original designer. With this in mind I ask that any post of my graphics work on XDA be removed. I know that once it is posted on a site [that is copyright protected] there is something I can do about it. So enjoy the satisfaction of your getting away with ripping me off. If anyone wishs to use any of my creations FOR PERSONAL USE I have no problem with it and if you wish to change it in any way FOR PERSONAL USE go nuts but release it as your work after changing it slightly SHAME ON YOU...

Anyone that thinks I am being unreasonable I apologise I'm not trying to be a baby here... I put alot of time and effort to contribute back to a community that has done great things but I just can't accept that someone can rape your work without giving any credit at all... download any of my projects and see in the readme I clearly acknowleage anyone who has released the software or has inspired any part of the alienX project. I credit alienware for any part of what I used of thiers and even tho the only parts I used of thiers is the text alienware and the head and if they made a complaint to me I would instantly remove any part of a skin with any of thier work on it. Im quite sure they would be as pissed off as me if I had reworked thier logo to read ALIENPROBEX on thier logo.

Anyway as I said please remove any post releasing any of my work on XDA and it will no longer be a problem for this site. Thanks to everyone here that has used the designs here.... And has given credit were credit is due. You are the poeple that we were doing this for.

Could Someone make a full Xbox 360 theme??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] -Mr. X-:
i agree, unfortunately this is a stolen theme. which he unbranded. even if there was changes made. he 1) didn't ask permission to modify it. and 2) did not post where it originally came from or was inspired from. which would leave users to believe that its his own original work. now this said. you both can't have the same psd files and claim it as original work some one is lieing here. i have to agree that looks almost dead identical to probex's work. sorry but when the glove fits...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MikeyD2:
credit does need to be given it is probex's work......come on people

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] claus1953:
Wow... you let themes out like fresh bread...lol...very nice work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] F2504x4:
These are two completely different themes, from the colors to the icon's used,the back drops etc etc... if you look at them they are based off of two different idea's. cheez.

Lets get back to creating and put this baseless squabbling to rest...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PROBEX:
How much did he pay you to say that... please... OMFG

Colors=same

Icons=modifed my internet icon

slider=ripped from another theme

background=changed

people screen= ripped totally

programs=ripped totally

mail envelope=ripped totally but attempted to hide my icon with the other.

dialer= ripped totaly

the map search area icon= ripped totally

the small icons throout the theme= ripped

I would like to see the music screen as I would put money on it being a total rip of mine as well.

But whatever go give him a reacharound in the back room now.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mssmison:
this thread has soo totally fallen apart. i don't know why I even check it anymore, there hasn't been any good themes in ages.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Corpsegrinder:
Those greens are not remotely the same. His green is much more fluorescent. I'll agree on the envelope and the contact tabs but thats about it.

Could he of based it off of yours? Seems to me it is. And so are a ton of other themes on here. Everyone is inspired from one another. Is it a totally 100% rip? Definitely not.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] F2504x4:
.

Sorry but i do not perform acts like you describe or wish, sorry to spoil your nightly wet dreams .

the two themes represent to different idea's and creativity , while both follow a alien theme , one is clearly about a planet and the other is attempting to show a alien war like back ground ?

While i do not condone coping, the amount of themes that can be created thanks to the hard work of some of chef's here on XDA that have made it very easy create them, one is bound to comes across some that look alike even then I do not think it would be intentional considering how small a electronic world we live in....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 151jcolon:
please please:(:(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MyNarwhalBacon:
While i am more than happy to defend the original creator, i have to say they are similar, but not an exact copy. I have to say you are due credit, ProbEX for originality, but it seems like he used your theme as a platform.

Similar:

---------

Idea

Contacts

Mail

Dialer (Complete Rip Off)

Programs

Dissimilar:

----------

Icons

Background

HomeTab (Clocks, easily changed but still...)

Pictures (Yours ProbEx is colored his is not)

Map Screen

Tab Background

In general it does seem that he started off using your theme and made it his own, he SHOULD have given you credit for you being his platform, however i would say they are quite different. I like yours better ProbEX, more time and customization went in to it. I just hope he would say, yeah I know i started off by using yours. His is great for a first time, and is different enough to me.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kidnamedAlbert:
EVERYONE!

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

stop with the arguing of PROBEX's ripped off skin.

keep this thread going for what it was intended for.

wapvirus's post has been removed until PROBEX shows the .psd files. please no more speak of this.

yes we know he should have given credit to PROBEX but ive seen many people use parts of my skins and not give me credit.

maybe it was a mistake.

just keep on skinning guys(and gals?)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Solidus_k:
Hi

Just want to say thanks to PROBEX for all your themes they are awesome I tried this one that is in the first post.

HTC-TOUCH/VOUGE transformation package by PROBEX (external direct link)

But how can you get that digital clock because I get the normal one.

Thanks again for your great skins.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mike21pr:
there is a cab for the clock in the package and then when you apply the theme, the clock will be skinned also
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JCKOTZE:
Thank you everyone which supperted me in my skins and for all the good words

Mobilematt,nhatt you cheered up my day,but this is realy the end for me here,this thread has gon mad,I`m out of here.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Solidus_k:
Lol I just installed the zip file directly didnt noticed whats inside Thanks for your answer.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] adderz91:
PROBEX is really taking this personally.

90% of themes here have been based off other themes, and no one has complained.

Some themes are based off the iPhone, no credit is given to Apple.

Sorry Probex but i disagree with you, yes he should of mentioned you but your taking it too far.

Dont turn this place into a business with people holding onto the copyrights and patents of this and that, we are a community.

He used your theme as a base, he did NOT flat out steal it. He did not simply slap his name on your theme, and he is not SELLING it, so i see very little harm done.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dekeMX:
Very sad to see you go JCKOTZE, :(. I understand your choice and want to tell you I love and appreciate all your skins. Excellent skinner!!!! You will be missed. Would love it if you would reconsider, but understand your decision and will respect it. Much love!!!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicholasendean:
tested sms all options and functions

I read your sms issue about freezing, and have tested the skin (also my favorite too) and have no freezing.Basically its first rate and works perfectly.I did however have to place ALL the skin files into windows directory using "good-old" Resco Explorer (trial) twice, then did a soft reset. And its fine. Hope you get you sms issue sorted.

:)Regards

Nicholas
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wapvirus:
I have had no say in this matter also i can see that i am newer here so take Probex word over mine like i said in my other post i have all the PSD files for my work and my personal opinion is that this theme is much better than his and the menu icons are superior to his then we go into the colour Green well can't i make a f******* green theme i will retract all my work from this site ok every little counts

you are all Hippocrates most of the themes in this section are copies of each other Now Please wake up and do not discriminate and also Mod that removed the link before seeing my side of the story THANKS THAT@S Justice

Take Care Now
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Deano1964:
I am a big fan of this thread but as many other people have said it has fallen apart. No longer are people posting skins because attention has been drawn away from what the topic of the thread is...."Manilla 2D - Skins, clocks and wallpapers (new text color and softkeys!)". This is because of the arguments and comments about people stealing each others skins. I am not supporting either side and people copying other peoples skins IS a very important matter but can someone please create a topic in another section regarding this matter and continue the conversation/argument there. At least the whole of XDA can have their opinion, even the people who don't check the M2D skin thread.

If you like my work go to deviant Art, my themes will be coming from there from now on :)

This thread has reached it limits, sadly
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] havocnl:
I really like your work :) Have the Nature Blue color as theme now.

Can you provide us the link to your devianart profile?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] deepthroat:
I second that. Some people taking this matter too much, and they should work at copyright office.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] F2504x4:
This is really disappointing the actions that a mod has taken, Probex went way aboard with comments (see his reply to my previsious post)

<------uncalled for comments

SEVERAL members have said that they are not identical, yet a mod took one side over the other, sad to see this....

Then we have certain members who jumped on Wapvirus who were not involved , wrong thing to do in this case, they could have waited for him to defend himself before condemning him, he has offered to show proof that his work was not pirated...yet a mod condemned him......this needs to be made right, a mod needs to be unbiased in the issues and allow both sides to to state their cases in private.....

Really disappointed in the course of actions that have taken place so far :(

I will very sad if you out of here,my good friend.I hope you ever-young and happily.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] F2504x4:
Jckotze , while I respect a lot of the work you have done, I want you to google Intel theme and Intel theme ppc, check google images, you will see that many others have come up with similar themes and/or ideas for the PPC , point is that while you may think your work is a original idea, there are others that have had the same idea as you and may have never seen what you have created. one of them is even using the same exact logo that you used, (btw that Intel logo is patented but lets not go there)

Are you going to go after them as well ? Probably not, (some themes are not as advance as some of the current theme's due to the advances made in skinning ).

Why not give this guy the benefit of the doubt before condemning him and his work ?

I really do not want to see you leave , that is your choice to do so, but you really should think this through, rather then "picking up your toys going home mode "

Just more food for thought...;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] claus1953:
I am really sad about that, love your themes and think you are a very good skinner. anyway i will follow your work in devianart. take care
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kidnamedAlbert:
**** this thread.

I'm making skins and not releasing them.

Thanks guys.

BTW, Never did i take someones side. i just saw that wapvirus used some of his stuff like little details but still you should always give credit.

Oh, and it wasnt me who deleted his post.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] adderz91:
Well id rather people DIDNT post themes than fight about "stealing" and wanting to copyright everything.

We are a community, not a business. I will be posting some more themes here, i just need some ideas.

To all the people who arent so uptight about it all, i thankyou.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kidnamedAlbert:
THREAD RE-OPENED.

but under some conditions:

Be nice, ALWAYS GIVE CREDIT, DO NOT ***** IF YOU THINK SOMEONE TOOK YOUR SKIN AND RE-DID IT(Please PM them and try to get it sorted out between the two), and lastly GIVE CREDIT!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] c3ro:
this thread is a mess!

if you ask me, all kind of themes for all the apps out there need a separate thread called 'Themes and Skins' like the diamond has.

anyways, i was searching for theme in this thread but cannot find it anymore. the post where i asked for it, got kinda lost and nobody cares to help :'(

i even asked someone in a pm, but he seems to judge from postcounts. is that the new spirit of this site?

oki, enough my crying :)

keep on guys!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kidnamedAlbert:
i think maybe i should delete all posts in this thread that doesn't include a theme huh?

make this dedicated to themes and themes ONLY.

we would have to ask twolf first though.

i would need some help though...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
500 pages of deleting? good luck with that... :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kidnamedAlbert:
i have mine set to 50 posts per page.

shouldn't be that hard :)

only if you let me. its YOUR thread.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mattster_spv:
Hi KidnamedAlbert.

Maybe just starting a new thread may be easier?

We can always post links back to pages in this thread if needed.

I've been slowly through every page in this thread over the last couple of months as it is full of great work and tips, but I pity any newcomer who tries the same.

I say lets all turn over a page and start a new thread. :-)

Mattster.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kidnamedAlbert:
alright i made a new thread.

i dont know why i reserved all those posts if its just gonna be for skins and skins only... :confused:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RedBux:
Agreed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are sharing most of the stuff here if not all

So what and why some of us are arguing on this issue.

Be and behave as a grown up.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] deepthroat:
I agree with you.

The key is BIG HEART - this is the forum where we registered ourselves in. So if you decided to upload your work, then my opinion is that credits would have automatically been given by numbers of people downloading your work, that is all ...but off-course, big thanks to those who extract the m2D platform at the first place, then creator of this thread, then ....rest of us for making this thread great :D

Let's back to business.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] deepthroat:
More suggestions ....I thought it would be impractical to separate skin post thread and other thread for discussion. We are all not m2D expert here and we are always expecting people asking about this and that related to posted skin in particular ...

Twolf's thread is great, by the way he's providing a posted skin summary at the first post then a link to that skin, and noobs like me can always reasonably discussed about topics in the same thread.

I agree 500 pages are too much, too hectics already, so why dont you just allow people post discussion on your new thread?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] deepthroat:
Mark, you can play with the latest version of m2d customizer mdct, link is provided at the first post ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mattster_spv:
Agreed. I thought the point of a new thread was so that this one could be closed and used for reference only. This thread was doing fine for absolutely ages, it just got too big. The idea of now having "just skins but no talking!" will take much moderating as for most people, the main point of joining a forum or thread is communication. I see the idea behind it, but I can't see it lasting long.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Dredd67:
Well you can link it here if you want, I don't mind.

Posting it in a separate thread is easier for me regarding the support. I had some bad experiences in the past with spb ms2 skins: no visibility, questions lost in the thread and never answered, etc..., implying dozens of MPs for special requests.

AFAIK, Greatbal did the same with his Diamond skin for MS2. Of course I don't expect such a madness with my skin, but I wanted to try it this way this time. ;)
