OFFICIAL: Copyright Claim Status [DISPUTE]

Maybe he thought he wouldn't get away with it if he tried to get away with more?

also, the thought of someone paying 300 dollars for a theme is insane to me, I'm not doubting it, but questioning it. Would it take a lot of effort and time to make such a theme?

There are a lot of elements to web and graphic design, I come across this problem a lot. People don't realise how much you have to put into it.

$300 is on the lower end of the scale. For an entire web design (no coding), people pay up to something like $1500 on a proper freelancing website. Check out the 99designs web design section for proof: http://99designs.co.uk/web-design/contests?show=open

I was quite surprised at how little it sold for, freelancer.de seems to rip off designers. If I designed a theme like this I could easily get $300 for it.

Well it was stolen, so I'm sure that had something to do with it.

But my little cousin said he could make me a site for $100! What do you mean it won't be the same quality, a website is a website right!?

^ Love hearing that one.

Wow, you are a hero Jamie! Good work!

 

[Caius]

Dang, 75 dollars for a theme?

Good something is being done though, how did you find out about this anyway?

It was brought to my attention because the owner of the website didn't speak much english. I forget who found it originally.

 

[Caius]

Updates. See edit. Selfbump.

Wait, so the guy with the theme is the crook?! What a twist!

I have a question guys. I know this topic is rather old, but it is really important to me.
Could someone explain how the story ended? I ask this because I worked with the guy who is currently running the German Nookbay site. A friend of mine sent the url to you in order to find out if he stole it from TBT.

Anyway, he told me that he bought the theme himself and that he wasn't aware of it being stolen (as he told you as well)- and that he came to an amicable solution by talking to the bell tree-team.

And now I read something about a "twist"? What twist?
I read through all the pages but my English isn't the best, so I did not understand who was the thief in the end? Was it the guy running Nookbay? That would be a giant shock...

The dispute is closed. The guy from nookbay came to an agreement to source belltree on all pages. It's not important and the issue is over.

Yeah, I just thought that another question wouldn't hurt anyone...

Plus, I think that I somehow have the right to know what happened because I worked very hard on Nookbay, and I only stopped doing that because I wasn't sure if he lied to me & the rest of the team or if he really bought the theme.
It was uncertain wether he did something illegal or not. That's the reason why I dismissed my job there.

Whatever, if you don't want to tell me, I'll have to ask him myself- although I do not understand why you won't explain it to me since you edited all the proceedings into the first post anyway... :/

I will personal message you the details. I'm not singling you out after telling anyone. It's just a closed dispute.
