How where them able to steal the entire template? Ok for css/js's but what about phps?

Both of these sites are so badly designed that each of them should be FLAMED.

Totally a rip since the code still has your info in it, but besides that it's a stretch. Design-wise you really don't got much on them in my opinion.

It's theft!
1. Contact them and let them know
2. No response – contact their hosting providerin both cases, cite a reason that you might loose revenue as a result of what has happened – ground for suing

Meh, it's not like it's another design site, maybe the person who put it together doesn't know enough to know that he shouldn't rip it. Certainly didn't take any measures to try and hide it.
Take the high road, contact them and let them know that they need to compensate you for use of your design or change the site.
If they ignore you or say no way, link your site to a new style sheet and fuck with the one they're linked to, like a tiled background image that has the words "don't buy this house, it has rats and mold".- HA! fuck me, i viewed teh source from the same page twice. nevermind.locustsloth

this is from the country-house css:
Theme Name: Oyster Design Theme v1
Author: Danny Tonkin
Author URI: http://www.oysterdesign.co.uk

perhaps it is a wp template, but they appear to have pulled the google site verification and rss feed as well.
From the "rip-off site"
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Oyster Marketing & Design RSS Feed" href="feed/index.html" />

Have you tried contacting them?

Email them and give them 5 days to respond to your email before you take further/legal action... bluff it and see what they do.

ANY TIPS FOR FLAMING THIS GUY.
Oh, get real - it's some chump that's selling a house, who's borrowed some code - as we all do - but hasn't the nous to hide his tracks.
This doesn't qualify as minor drama, quieten down.

- Aye, I'm the dick here - flame good, you internet warrior hero you.detritus
- Settle down detritus lolFunkmonk
- detritus is right, this is nothing. if it was another design studio you would get more sympathy. i mean the guy is tabbing his lists with spaces and you're threatened?kingsteven
- with spaces.kingsteven

just a possibility....
but how do you know "Danny Tonkin" didnt just resell it without Oyster knowing ?- cos he was the one that found it.centro
- ok, honestly i dont think this battle is worth fighting. As shit as it is - these things happenWeLoveNoise
- Everythingbutnothing0
As Detritus says Its probably a bit harsh to go mental of the back of this. Probably just someone with 1 No Knowledge of coding and 2 Just a guy selling a house
LOL

the money/time involved in pursuing this - ask yourself is it really worth it ?
