Default Free Templates Being Resold

Hi there,

I recently found a site reselling most of the free templates off this site - http://www.templateworld.co.za. I have read the terms and conditions of use and obviously they have decided to ignore this. I just thought the original authors should know what's going on.

Of course it's unfair when some people create templates and the others earn money for nothing. I believe it should be stopped!!!

Thanks for the heads up mikechats.
This type of blatant thievery is bound to happen.

Unlike the thief's site, FreeWebTemplates' site is extremely popular and very well known for providing excellent web templates, graphic customisations and helpful advice - ALL FOR FREE.

And we all love freebies!

I actually think almost everything on that website is stolen. I seem to recall seeing a bunch of their logos on other sites......

The logos there look like your standard pre-made logo templates that come with most logo making software.

Does it mean nothing can be done to prevent this situation?

lol they even changed the text on the preview images saying who it was designed by.

Mimoun would be the only one who can really do anything about it though.
