Layout Stealing.

Some coders love to take inspiration from tumblr themes. A user on here has stolen two themes and the similarities are too uncanny for it to be 'inspiration'. I've seen two people call her out in the comments and she replies with "I was inspired, but I forgot to mention". This doesn't make sense once so ever. How do you forget twice? I really want to reveal who she is, but some of you may not agree with me. This is literally the worst thing ever. I find it disgusting and I'm planning on reporting her to the tumblr coder.

Reporting her to the Tumblr coder is probably the best way to go about it. I'm not really aware of any recent layout that might have a resemblance to a Tumblr layout to date but if you're certain then I think it's a good idea to let the Tumblr coder know.

We've already had a few angry Tumblr users in the past make their way on AFF to let us know that one of our coders in the coding community has blatantly stolen their design and its only their right to ask the user to take it down. I think we all need to be familiar on how to properly credit our inspirations, not just for coding but for graphic designing/writing as well.
