You violated it, mike did not and neither did I, mine is different, the IDEA is diffent. Mine is a widget, what you violated is not an image showing the pin, you violated this; yours is a copy of mine, mine is a box with a picture of the pin and the location, when you click mine it goes to a page with the widget code, mine updates without changing the code, mine can be on other blogs, same for yours. Alot of people have pin picture on their sidebar, no one other than people who use mine (And your copy) has a pin widget like this.

No, it is an image, a widget has a function. His is JUST an image, mine is not.

Let’s put it this way, you admitted to copying me, mine is not a copy of mikes nor anyone else’s, copying is illegal.

Here give up:

Similarities between mikes and mine:
1.Shows pin, allot of peoples posts do that also

Similarities between yours and mine:
1.Shows pin,
2.A box with a picture of the pin,
3.Shows pin location in text,
4.Links to a page with code of widget,
5.Can be on multiple blogs,
6.Updates without changing code

See? Mine is not a copy!!! YOUR’S IS!

Who added that tag? Good grief you have to be 13 to get an email and you need an email to create a blog.

It still would be a copy, still a box, kinda thing, boxes can be circles. And I clearly had a copyright on the bottom of the page.

This is not a WordPress.com issue.

If someone has copied your work without permission, send them a DMCA notice. If you can’t be bothered doing that, why would you expect anyone else to solve your problem for you?

Because I don’t want to have to file a DMCA notice, I don’t want anyone suspended, I just want it off the blog.

If I have to file one I will, but I want to try and resolve this peacefully first.

Actually when I said a non-wordpress site I meant the widget was hosted on a non-wordpress site, not the blog. Sorry for causing any confusion!

Then resolve it peacefully with the person who has used your widget. Posting here won’t help that.

You can’t copyright a circle.
