Compare http://come.to/titandesigns to http://www.topazdesigns.com/~klm . (The DHTML-site, not this guys swedish personal page. Look similar? Notice how it even has the same bugs? And in the pictures-section you'll find Dhabih's 'Broken', and although he doesn't claim it to be his, I'm willing to be he doesn't have permission to use it...

This actually came up ages ago at TD, and the site seemed to have gone down at one point, but now he goes and posts it at DBM...

Ooohhh.

We do not have freedom. We have rules and oppression and where the oppression is less visible we believe to have found freedom.

Eh, never mind...
I get a 'page can not be displayed' error now... That was quick.
I wonder where he'll pop up next...
EDIT:

Ah, no such luck. It's still up. Well, go see it while you can.

Heh heh -- He seems to credit Dhabih w/the "Broken" pic now -- The rest of his site is a shameless rip of the other one though ={ How sad...hehe
I wish my site looked that good; But I guess I'll have to go with simplicity rather than thievery

No, I think he gave dhabih credit all along, but if he doesn't have permission to use it that doesn't make much difference.

Oh yeah, he has a forum: http://pub6.ezboard.com/btitandesigns.html
If you feel like commenting on this... spectacle, do it there..

Well, to give the guy the benefit of the doubt:

from Topaz Designs I quote: "You can purchase 2 of my interfaces included in NavPack 1 from NavWorks! Please click below to visit their cool site!"

Or maybe it was done with a tutorial. And what's with the Adobe symbol on Titan Designs?

The only picture I can get on Titan is the Titan Cola...

No doubt ere, Kelly herself posted about this on her forum some time ago, saying it's a rip. This interface was made solely for her personal site, and took some time to do, too. What makes it even more obvious a rip is the fact that he took the code, too: he even has the same bugs Kelly's site does.

Titan Designs?
Just click on the top left image on his front page to go to his 'new english site'.

Here's a direct link without the redirector: www.lidnet.se/td

I don't know how long it will be up, it's been reported to his host. (I just wonder where he'll pop up next)
