[Off-topic] k8sh:
I had to take deep breaths before I post anything so anything that I will write must be taken with no tone (sarcastic or otherwise), just a simple sharing of opinion.

Spirale and Father Ted, I agree 100% with the previous posts you have written. Very well said.

I joined XDA the very first day I got my HD2 and out of all the themes I have seen I like the ANASTASIA theme the best and I admire Dinik for his artistic abilities. I like it over the others for its simplicity and it just looks really neat on my phone. As things progress, I found myself trying all that I could to complete the Anastasia theme since, like one of the other posters, I also don't like having an incomplete theme. So, I started reading and learning about cabs, dlls, manila, cfc-gui and photoshop. I have not used photoshop in my life ever and now I can do a few things, still amateur but I am getting there.

ANYWAY, I started sharing under the Anastasia theme with my xdashutdown skin (which I have totally abandoned now since I like Johcos Endkey Replacement better). That, of course, was with Dinik's permission. I might not agree with all the rules but I do follow them. I did all that Dinik asked of me since I just wanted to gain some experience in posting/sharing etc. I posted my thread with his exact specifications to the letter, font size, font color, donate button, his rules, format of the cab filename blah blah blah - ALL FOLLOWED TO THE LETTER. What can I say, I was new and naive. But I understand or at least I tried to understand that Dinik just wanted uniformity but what is up with you and rules??? Were you raised by the military or something? That was a joke. XDA mods don't ban me.

Also, I just want it cleared that I do mind when Dinik use words like steal, rip-off, and what-have-you's as that is really unfair since NO ONE is claiming ANASTASIA as theirs. Even if there is an incident where Dinik's name might not have been mentioned unintentionally (I for one has never seen one), anyone who will see the mod or icon will think it to be DINIK's regardless of who made it. From what I have read so far, Dinik seems to be bothered when his name is not mentioned but Anastasia is. Is that when you start assuming people are 'stealing' your work??? So Dinik are you really that insecure that you need your name plastered all over? Do you always have to fight with everyone who may have forgotten to mention your name in their mods??? Just take pride in what you have accomplished and be happy that people like your theme so much and try not to let 15,000+ downloads get to your head. In a year or so, you and your theme will be a thing of the past. So instead of being all feisty all the time, CHILL OUT and try to keep some humility. And just so you know respect is earned not demanded. You need to show respect to gain respect. As Father ted says, avoid having double standards.

Also, I asked Dinik once before, if I can share folders/icons etc. I made in Anastasia-style and he agreed only that I am not allowed to post a link or a cab in a thread. I can share but only if I individually email every single person who requested for it. And we all know attachments are not part of XDA PM system. That really completely ticked me off. Because that right there DO NOT MAKE SENSE TO ME AT ALL. He says sure I can share but not in a thread nor link. I had no intentions of starting a thread, I simply do not like to send the same files to people over and over again so it would have been nice to be able to upload them and direct people to that link. But of course that was not allowed.

But you don't have to worry about that now Dinik as I do not intend to share anything that will have your mods in them (so people stop asking or sending PM's). It is my own personal decision not to share my Anastasia mods. I like your work very much still but I don't have to like you and if I can avoid associating myself with you or your theme altogether, that is what I intend to do. I am waiting for another theme to come along so I can completely purge my phone of anything Anastasia. But for now, I do my own Anastasia style mods (just so I have a complete theme). If you are going to come up with another rule to dictate and tell me what I can or cannot do to my OWN phone, I will go ballistic.

So even if you have stopped sharing cabs or stop developing altogether, you are only hurting yourself.
