It's not the same as P2L I can't see any stolen DATA, but the idea is lame by doing that I hope somebody uses SQL Injection on their Database.

Good luck to them 8-)

"Website is inspired by pixel2life.com"

Bottom of the homepage.
Not saying it's ok of course, but I've seen far worse uncredited ripoffs.

Just because you dont like it, doesnt mean you should rant them.

I dont know about those little arrows but those tutorial program icons really dont belong to you. It obviously belongs to the owner of the software.

No, I dont know how many hours you spent intalling and uninstalling apps to make them all. What I would have recommended was (when you were making the icons) to search it on google and resize it 21x22 gif icons.

No, then you don't always get the actual program icons, and resizing large logos and icons like that doesn't work very well. I've had to do it a couple of times when free demos weren't around and I hated the way they came out. Doing things the best way doesn't necessarily mean the fastest :huh:

Dear friend, i have created a tutorial indexer like pixel2life.com. You can also index your tutorials on website for free and can get traffic. My website is

http://www.life2pixel.info

Please go and add your tutorials.

Site URL: http://www.life2pixel.info

Now I have no problems submitting my tutorials to multiple listing sites, but when they go so far as to rip bits off, I refuse..

I'm of the opinion that when you violate the rights of one web user by ripping off their content, domain name/etc, you lose any rights of your own effectively.

The owner of that site is spamming everywhere atm to get traffic to his site, only review he needs is to learn about spamming.

Might as well be the same. Anyway, I saw an advertisement for that on a forum I administrate, thought it was funny and decided to share. You can close this if you want, it makes no difference to me if it is causing a problem. I just thought some of you might get a kick out of that.
