- grey-area 12y agoDid you pay for the other illustrations on your home page? They look a bit disparate, and some turn up elsewhere in an image search: https://dribbble.com/shots/1553377-Changing-Homes?list=users&offset=7 https://dribbble.com/shots/1553377-Changing-Homes?list=users... http://dabbled.org/this-robot-has-expired/ http://dabbled.org/this-robot-has-expired/ http://www.creativebloq.com/illustration/illustrations-strips-bicycles-back-basics-10135085 http://www.creativebloq.com/illustration/illustrations-strip... If not perhaps consider paying one of the illustrators (Daniel González stuff looks excellent) to make you a set of illustrations which are all in the same style - your pages would look a lot more coherent if they didn't have a grab-bag of styles going on, and also you could have a lot of liability if you don't have permission for every image on your site. It's not really on to just copy images from the web without attribution or payment - you could be sued for a lot of money for that basecamp image for example which is still up. Otherwise, it's a nice site and great idea though.
- hughstephens 12y agoI suspect he's just grabbed this template: https://wrapbootstrap.com/theme/triangle-multi-purpose-template-WB0D53BSK https://wrapbootstrap.com/theme/triangle-multi-purpose-templ... but yes, you make an excellent point. Equally I agree with his approach of using a $9 template before validating w customers and working out the business model...not sure what the theme site says about the images licence wise but it's not necessarily a bad abstraction to assume that images included with a template are licenced with it if they aren't watermarked etc.
- grey-area 12y agoSeems really unlikely that template has licensed all those images either given it's from a template farm that looks like they churn these things out and the many sources.
- bshimmin 12y agoAccording to this, they're all Creative Commons-licensed: https://wrapbootstrap.com/theme/triangle-multi-purpose-template-WB0D53BSK/comments https://wrapbootstrap.com/theme/triangle-multi-purpose-templ... I don't really know if I believe that, but there we are.
- cornstalks 12y agoNote that he/she doesn't say which Creative Commons license. It could be a non-commercial license. Besides, I don't see any attributions to the artists for these images (which is required for all the various Creative Commons licenses). I highly doubt this theme is legitimate. OP, be wary of using this theme.
- winter_blue 12y agoIn light of the fact that the template you've linked looks exactly like recallbee.com, the author's comment "Thanks, I actually copied the image to see what it'd look like in place and forgot to take it out" seems disingenuous.
- iamvfl 12y agoNot really. He just bought the template and customized it, and I imagine he wrote his own back-end as well. After all, it's just a bootstrap theme.
- grey-area 12y agoSeems like an honest mistake in using this theme, though taking an image from bootcamp is a little weird, probably just forgot but it should never have been in there even in a mockup. The theme authors themeum should be ashamed of themselves though, and it looks like their theme has been swiftly deleted as it is now 404. http://www.themeum.com/ http://www.themeum.com/ Looks like they just shamelessly rip off people's copyright work to put into their themes, first image from one of their premium themes came up on tineye as all rights reserved: http://demo.themeum.com/#organic_life http://demo.themeum.com/#organic_life https://www.flickr.com/photos/36161769@N05/5896987315 https://www.flickr.com/photos/36161769@N05/5896987315
- unsquare 12y agoI've lost count of companies & individuals ripping off our illustrations and reselling them bundled into their templates. Especially on a $9 template, the odds of them being properly licensed at that price point, I'd be surprised. In this case, the author mentions it's an editorial piece for a magazine.

- throwaway9813 12y agoWhat a really passive aggressive way of doing what I don't know exactly. What is your point in calling the OP out like this instead of in private, Asshole?
- EpicEng 12y agoYou know, if you have a problem with someone and want to say something,fine, but don't be a coward and hide behind a throwaway account. Apparently you only speak your mind when you're sure that everyone around will agree with you, which is pathetic.
