I can talk about mines and Dangeruss skin's. Our skins were used without any kind of permission and worst, those guys are selling theese skins.
We are talking to them during the last few weeks for them to remove our skins with any success.

Thanks, Hell....[may I call you that?]...

I'm hoping some nice, kind person out there with Russian as a first or second language would help give a 'personal' touch.

So far, communication has been somewhere between vague and comical...

Unfortunately, I have contacted the skinners whose work has been used by you and your site and they have all requested that you remove their skins immediately.
You will have to make your own, or contact other skinners and request their permission to use other skins, or ask them to make some specially for you and your product.

I am using a translation site...and I hope this works correctly.

Yours, sincerely,
Paul Martin.

I'm HOPING that is what it says...I'm too chicken to try a reverse trans...

DAK is russian so is possibly the best person to speak to as he also has one of his skins on there presumably without his permission. I have emailed him asking him to take look at this thread.

http://www.ksdev.com/skinengine/screen.html is pretty bad, too. Can we say "PreLuna"?

These guys have done it before. Looks like they need whacking down again.

I have the greatest respect for thou ampersand, jafo. I also use a rendering emplacement. I wouldn't be caught without one.

BTW, I think the little rat icon beside the word "Skins" on that website indicates the philosophy of these people. You may have a tough haul ahead convincing them of the error of their ways.

Oh, and I was wondering, when people say "rip" around here do they mean something along the lines of "rip off". The reason I ask is that I work in the graphic arts industry and a "rip" is a whole other thing...usually very expensive but crucial if you want to send 4 color separations to a negative imagining machine.

Yes, it's used in the context of "Windows? What a rip of MacOS . . ."
