So here the update on how coloritstudio.com stole our company’s website. We contacted coloritstudio with a “cease a desist” email. Stating that their flash file and html files were stolen from variousways.com and that they even left our designers name and email in the code.
Well, they responded back, (via email) saying they would look into the matter and get back to us.
Well, one month later, they sent an email with an attachment of their countries business certificate. The email stated…
“Please find attached copyright certificate for color it studio.We consider this matter closed, but should you which to pursue your claim, I suggest we let the courts decide.
Sincerely,
Color It Studio”
We thought that was cute…So we emailed them back stating that the copyright violation was not in the “name” but in the flash file and code.
(Keep in mind that at the time they left our designers name, and email in the code and even continued to pull our stylesheet from our server.
But, we soon found out that they took the time to correct the code and put in their name on the stolen files. They even left our title in the code “Award winning design and development”…which I thought was really ironic considering they stole their design.
So they emailed us back …stating….
“This is really annoying.
We will investigate further and come back to you in the beginning of next week.
Good weekend.”
“…annoying”… You have got to be kidding me. We even informed them that the design they stole was in created in 2004 and was even featured in TASCHEN’s book “WEB DESIGN: STUDIOS”. “This book, in its compact format, displays 90 of the most prominent interactive studios worldwide.” editor: Julius Wiedemann.
We will see what happens… more updates to come…

We have seen this ratio in mathematics and art through the ages. I am experimenting with creating actionscript artwork using this ratio for dynamically creating visual composition.
