for the record... I was not the first one , NOR THE ONLY ONE... to point out that designs were being copied..

since the site managers obviously don't have the time to police blatant copyright infringement

it has unfortunately become everyones job to police each other..

four other people also made comments about copying work here..

yet you chose to use a vulgar tone with me..

so...
you're being reported ,,,
again,,,

another time for YET another blatant copying of other's concept that i see on your "winning" designs..

and once here for unacceptable language . Congratulations!

A JR mind your F@#!K business, since when did you become design police.

@Stephanie
Damn near identical ? Just search for vacation,hotels,palm tree,sun in stock images and you will find hundreds of "damn near identical" works.
Now I could say that your entries are pretty amateurish , which is not true , you are a great designer - but shows your methods.
I have withdrawn my entry, good luck with yours.

victor watch out, you also used palm trees, and water, elements which the CH has said he wants, but your copying...watch out!

ha because I used lines in my buildings? It's a DESIGN element that helps create depth, I never knew that that was off limits, HE WANTS PALM TREES he has said that to everyone, my palm trees don't look anything like ella's, so I guess anyone that uses palm trees are copying ella? HMMM....I guess the elements he wants in his logo are completely off limits now? right...

jj.. this are your entries on armada..

http://99designs.com/contests/6884/…try-448601

you used the circle and water.. but the style of the buildings and palmtrees are , in my opinion, too close to ella's to just be just a coincidence. especially when it happens twice..

again.. only my opinion...

and my #75 is using the same elements I used in a PREVIOUS contest called Armada, thanks, has nothing to do with ella's fyi

my number 76 has NOTHING to do with ella's THANKS....my HALF CIRCLE is representation of a SUN..thank you!

Victor's #79 is damn near identical as well. Can we please use our creativity to come up with new ideas and not re-create established one? It's a bit rediculous.

wow.. a lot of these are getting waaaaay too close to ella's for my level of comfort..

jj's was already cutting it close with his "interpretation" #53 of ella's #34

so ella did a half circle #73 , and by coincidence.... .. jj HAD to do a half circle.. #76 ?

ella, why don't you do one in a triangle.. i'd like to see what it looks like when jj flops it and makes it a triangle..

i'm thinking #56 too :-)

@jj0208451
thanks, and obviously inspiring. :-P ( for your 53 that is)

quite a bit of copying going on here...
