Latest Portfolio Design

All that's different is that you've replaced the twitter icon with another and added some more text.. it's not 'unique' whatsoever, you've just re-arranged some things so it looks different. Yes, you can take some ideas, but not take the whole lot.

That's very nice mate. You got some skill's! ;D

Well its what they asked for so it's what they got to be honest lol.

Because i'm so sure that your layout is one of a kind. I've seen tons following your style with exactly the same colours as it is.

I'm going to be PM'ing you for a Layout soon if your still doing them for free?

[Sam]

Yeah i'm doing relatively simple ones for free. Theres like 4 or 5 in the queue at the moment though. Struggling to do them all.

Please find a site that looks exactly like mine then (and no, don't just copy and paste the layout you've just designed :rolleyes.

C'mon, the layout is exactly the same.. there's nothing unique about yours. Your client probably asked for a similar site to mine but 1) surely if they're using the portfolio for web design, they should create their own? 2) you should know that you can't directly copy a site, 3) put a unique twist on the design rather than copy the boxes for the previews, the text, the idea for a twitter update.. all you've done is add some more text, that's it lol.

The text? I always use Verdana size 10....

The twitter was what they wanted. I'm going to sound pretty blunt here, and excuse me if this offends you. I don't care if you're annoyed i supposedly 'copied' your layout. The client wanted it, so i made it. That's really all that matters to me because it's all work that's gone into my portfolio. I took one look at your site, closed it, and made this so it's not like i sat and tried to copy every detail. The colours look similar, but they aren't. They're two shades of black i picked randomly. The gradient is different, the layout previews open with jquery lightbox. I also used jquery to open a content area which is positioned at the top of the layout on the link that i pm'd you. There's your 'unique twist'

Also the boxes are different on mine because i did it by just creating a CSS box with a 3cm white solid border

Please don't be sarcastic :rolleyes: I wonder where you got the idea of the 3px white border from eh. It just annoys me how people don't think of their own ideas but resort to directly copying others (which is stated by a few people in this thread), it's obvious, don't try and twist it into saying it's not a copy, JUST because there's a subtle colour change or the addition of text.

[Sam]

Lol then i can't be annoying you because i personally don't copy, and i can think of my own ideas I dont see where the sarcasm was in my last message. If you're going to be pissed at anyone, be pissed at fourteen. He asked for the layout so he's the one who cant think up his own ideas, and copies

And is yours a 3px white border? If it is then lol, i kinda just guessed a border size that looked alright. Also there isnt just a 'subtle colour change' or 'addition of text'

Not one of the objects or anything are in the same place either :8

sam, you completely ripped the idea look at the logo
