  Old  Stole my content

http://www.pimpmaspace.com/layouts.php/cat=8

A TFer I talked to months ago went and found all my rap MySpace layouts and decided to go over my "MySpaceStop.com"s and use them on his site...

The site is http://www.PimpMaSpace.com , most of the Rap ones are all mine with his site's name stamped over mine...

I want to know, anyone knows this guy? I talked to him on AIM months ago thinking he was just some other nice guy trying to get ideas and discuss sites...

Im pissed off. Im sure hes had these for a while now. Can I press charges? (I can easily get a lawyer...)

What can I do other than e-mailing him to take them down?

It's not right that hes getting money off of content that I paid hundreds of dollars for... and that I spent alot of hours on... I'm sure I can do more than just get him to take them down since I bet he has been getting nice checks off of them.

(I found it all but didn't want to post here)

If you have access to a lawyer, then I would ask for advice before doing anything, as you have payed allot of money for these.

The domain was registered privately because I called the number and it got me to "Domains By Proxy" ... I told them my situation and they said to contact abuse@godaddy.com .

Imma see if I can contact his host as well because it's just bs, and I'm not gonna settle for a C&D when he's been making money off of them and who knows if he will delete them. I have proof that they're all mine, I have every single PSD.

You should try emailing him before you make public vulgar accusations.

I never said it wasn't. To be honest, there's no reason for you to post about it. If you want legal advice, at least post in the right forum. Also, how do you know his sexual orientation?

Thats not helping his frustration. How would you feel if you were him? I'd personally be pretty pissed as well.

I would be upset but not to the point that I would make a post like this on a public forum.

Send him a C&D, that's the best you can do.

How do YOU know his sexual orientation? Your blantantly calling the owner a guy, which could be wrong, and could make you seem stupid for asking that question..

Not at all. I happen to know the owner of the website and he is a guy.

You get my point, there's really no reason for him to vent his frustration like that on a public forum.
