Kirupa Gallery Award?

[GreenLantern]

http://www.clintbalcom.com/

Has "kirupa gallery" listed as an award and recognition? I couldn't find it?

[T-O]

Me smells a Scam..

[Krilnon]

Maybe KirupaGallery.com is a site...with a similar award/logo. (NOT) :P

[eilsoe]

I notified kirupster on the matter.

Some nerve that guy has... :scream:

[Voetsjoeba]

*hits the alarmbell*

I wonder if all his other 'awards' are real :P Fcukstar ain't fo shizzle.

[kirupa]

Hmm - he submitted his site for SOTW on June 12: http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58844

His site didn't win, and I'm not sure I recognize any of his other sites in his portfolio as SOTW winners.

I'll drop him an e-mail :)

Cheers!
Kirupa :ub:

[eilsoe]

I'd drop him a can of get-a-life.... :P

or maybe a grenade.... or reeeeeally effective itchingpowder.... or maybe just pack Dan in a box and mail it to him :P


ouch :P

[El_Thierro]

Grab your torches and pitchforks!

[kirupa]

I just sent him an e-mail asking why he has the award there. While not likely, he could have submitted another site using another name and won...it's worth asking, if anything, just to hear an alternate explanation.

He could have also misunderstood that SOTW award as going to everyone who submits :)

[GreenLantern]

Now don't forget to tell us what he replies with.

[El_Thierro]

It's actually a pretty nice site...and he's got a sweet girlfriend :drool:

Tell him we'll trade him the award for her :bad:

[idoik]

he is a ripper too:P


eather that or iso50.com did and i dont think iso50 rips:P

[idoik]

wow i didnt think not perfectly but now i do. on the right you see birds. and on the left you see a beach

[El_Thierro]

What the? That guy has some nerve...

I knew that looked familiar to me... Good observation idiok :thumb:

[mdipi]

i was thinking of itworks when i saw it but wow that is it more so!

[Digitalosophy]

I remember this guys site.

[prstudio]

ROFL

ouch :P

[billystar]

Grab your torches and pitchforks!
:lol:

is a trowel okay? :P

[kirupa]

Let's be nice - for at least 24 hours. He could be reading this, and if it is a misunderstanding with regards to his use of our logo (all other issues not considered), then we should give him a chance to not have to be pitchforked....or trowelled :P

[Krilnon]

I hope this ends nicely.

[McGuffin]

I hope it ends with a fight :evil:

We need this to be what UltraShock's 24-7media is :ne:

[GreenLantern]

Ya Kirupa Forums needs an arch nemesis.

I don't think this guy is big enough though. Let's piss off flashkit, that would be a good fight.

[McGuffin]

Lets do it :evil:

:)

[McGiver]

the threads about Billy Bussey looked for me as if people decided to pick him as official arch nemesis :D

[GreenLantern]

Did you see the thing that ethanm did? It was a picture of a bathroom and it had "for a good time call billy bussey" written on the wall.

hahahahaha

somebody find me that link

[.soulty]

*site is down for redesign*

http://www.clintbalcom.com/

[McGuffin]

No its not, you can still view v1.0 :)

[kirupa]

No its not, you can still view v1.0 :)Have you tried refreshing? I see a site redesign message also.

[McGuffin]

Bleh :(

[McGiver]

yeah - and the awards are gone ;)

[3d Nirvana]

lol... I think his score on cool homepages (on of the awards he "had") was 1 out of 10...... hahahahhahahahah

This guy is so busted! lol love it when they get caught in the act!

-3dnirvana

:p: :rabbit: :h: :P

[telekinesis]

or maybe a grenade.... or reeeeeally effective itchingpowder.... or maybe just pack Dan in a box and mail it to him :PCome on you guys, are you going to mail the "Daninator-In-A-Box" to him already. I've been cramped in here for hours and I don't feel like I'm going anywhere. Kind of sucks being cramped in a small box with all my weapons waiting to expload out and attack. Hurry up already Eilsoe. A killer's patience easily wears thin!

:evil:

[kirupa]

Let's be nice to him everyone - he was kind enough to listen to my e-mail, respond, and take action. That shows courtesy and professionalism :)

[idoik]

http://www.clintbalcom.com/BN2/?height=590&width=490 !!!!!!!!! there you can see his rip!

[minimalistik]

http://www.clintbalcom.com/BN2/?height=590&width=490 !!!!!!!!! there you can see his rip!


calm down, jeez :sighs: Do you commotion this much at btc?

[tucker]

what? im confused? he responded to kirupas email? *little smiley with a question mark that im too lazy to find but yet i am typing this which is taking longer than finding the smiley*

well it does say recognition. maybe he was recognized for entering. and recognized for getting a 1!


lol... I think his score on cool homepages (on of the awards he "had") was 1 out of 10...... hahahahhahahahah

[DariusMonsef]

[idoik]

WHERE IS THE PHONE NUMBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hehehe i am so crazy:P

[monkeyfresh]

wow, idoik, how did you find that. That is a blatant iso50 rip, (except the colors aren't as nice). I guess he's really not advertising this page though, what with the crazy address. Hopefully he's got the good sense to keep it that way. :upset:

[eilsoe]

Let's be nice to him everyone - he was kind enough to listen to my e-mail, respond, and take action. That shows courtesy and professionalism :)


And having those fake awards on his splash shows the exact opposite ;)

He asked for it...

[El_Thierro]

wow, idoik, how did you find that. That is a blatant iso50 rip, (except the colors aren't as nice). I guess he's really not advertising this page though, what with the crazy address. Hopefully he's got the good sense to keep it that way. :upset:
Actually, there was a link on his previous homepage with "Preview" or something like that, which popped that up... So he actually was advertising it :sigh:

[McGiver]

cool pic ethan :love:

[GreenLantern]

Ok, in all seriousness….

This guy obviously does have some talent. His site was fairly nice, and that rip of iso50 was decent. So I guess the question is, why do people with talent rip? It just doesn’t make sense to me.

[eilsoe]

because they have no imagination.. just skills in the software... :sure:

[billystar]

because they have no imagination.. just skills in the software... :sure:
no im sure he has imagination, hes just lazy and lacks respect for other people

[McGiver]

yep - takes a lot more time to develop an own idea that just seeing something and redoing it in a slightly modifyed way.

[fester8542]

Doh! :evil:

I miss all the good topics :(

[GreenLantern]

Yes! I want to hear what fester has to say about this guy.

[El_Thierro]

He'll probably massacre him or sumfin.

:run:

[mlk]

Does anyone happen to have a lost screen shot to show what the page was about ?

[GreenLantern]

I don't have a screenshot, but I can tell you.

It was just the guys personal/portfolio site.

[El_Thierro]

...with a few awards he added, which he might/might not have actually received. Including a Kirupa one, of which we're sure he didn't receive.

For the iso50 rip, there's a link on the previous page.

[McGiver]

so will we send him the Dan-in-a-box or the Fester-with-chainsaw?
hard decision - whatever we decide, his beautiful girlfriend will be stolen too.

[eilsoe]

why not send both?

[fester8542]

!!!Alright!!!

I knew sooner or later you guys would recruit me to go end someone :love:

:sniffle: This is the best day ever.

[eilsoe]

aww =)


daddy's little merc :love:

[McGuffin]

Ok, I say we send both, I hear FedEX has a send 1, the next package half off deal going on.

[El_Thierro]

Can I do the packing? Please? Plleeasse? :beam:

:bad:

[eilsoe]

lol :P


*STOMP*STOMP*

"Get in there you little..! Oh, sorry fes..."


......



*STOMP*

[fester8542]

lol :P


*STOMP*STOMP*

"Get in there you little..! Oh, sorry fes..."

*STOMP*


No need

lmao

Ship me in this :beam:

[El_Thierro]

...a little white box with a red X on it?

Original! :thumb:

:beam:

[telekinesis]

I'm still waiting in the box!

:evil:

Get me to the UPS store, NOW!

[McGuffin]

No :)

We're waiting for Fester to finish off his last job.

[El_Thierro]

*accidentally kicks box and runs*

Muahaha :bad:

[wizard]

His site's still down... my attempt to get this back on topic. ;)

[kirupa]

EVERYBODY - be nice :P I went through and deleted all of the last two pages of posts!

[telekinesis]

Nevermind.

He took the award off his web site. That is the end of the discussion really. There would be no need to take anything further. He was mature enough to realize what you did wrong.

[wizard]

That's a lot of deleting.


So what's the case? Did he mistakengly place the SOTW award on his site?
