What I find amusing is the fact that quite a few people didn't even bother to change the designer blurb, which to me suggests they know absolutely f all about design and hints at why they find it necessary to copy in the first place.

With enough time, I'm sure we could uncover art with the exact same design style that was created prior to his website.
That seems highly unlikely, unless he plagiarized himself. You might find something similar, but unlikely a split face with similar styling, the designer/code split, etc.

#33Is there a way to fingerprint the code in such a way that it's quite difficult to detect/remove but easy to trace?
People are going to copy anyway, everything is a copy of something. But if you create your own style so perfected that it cannot be copied without tremendous amount of time, you are already ahead of everybody else in your skill.
Also, more time to develop your skill than to waste time on trying to prevent somebody else doing the same thing.

Everything is a remix. Everything we do is based on something we have seen somewhere, how else could we do it ? Hardly anything is original, creativity is just the process of knowing how to mix things in a creative way to create something seemingly new.
Yeah, not really. There are traces from previous works and influences in anything, but this is not it.
This is not the Beatles being influenced from Buddy Holy, Elvis, Little Richard, and co in their early records.
This is like the Monkeys. Or the 20th cookie cutter R&B outfit.
And of course the Beatles went and did stuff that nobody else has done at the time with Revolver and Stg Peppers et al. And Velvet Underground. And Kraftwerk. And tons of others.
>creativity is just the process of knowing how to mix things in a creative way to create something seemingly new.
Well, then the examples in this website is the total opposite of it.

The examples given here don't bring anything to the table other than proof how lazy and sleezy these "designer / coders" are.
