Disclaimer

To my surprise I was recently contacted by a concerned website owner, accusing me of ripping/stealing their website content.

To make things clear I have decided to create this page, which will hopefully clear any discrepancies that may arise.

My Templates:

All of the templates that can be found within my website have been designed and built by myself and no-one else. For general info: I am a fully qualified Diplom Web Designer and Web Developer and have been working on the net for over 9 years (as of this documents publishing date).

All of my templates can be used by anyone for both commercial and personal use. For further details about the licence that goes with the templates please click here ».

With that said, all website users who use my templates have to keep the footer credit link and the copyright notice in all files.

Although my link and or name can be seen on or in a vast amount of websites, it doesnt mean that I own or am responsible for those websites.

For all of those people who think I own or run websites that use my templates - "WRONG" I dont and I am not responsible in anyway for any websites that use my templates.

Research:

If you are a victim of a spammer or content thief, please conduct some research before you go out and accuse innocent bystanders.

Templates that I build have the following:

Footer Link across all pages that use my template(s). e.g Template By OS Templates

Files that are used such as CSS and or JavaScript contain either a copyright notice from OS Templates or that of the developer/owner.

A typical CSS file has the following:

/*
Template Name: School Education
File: Layout CSS
Author: OS Templates
Author URI: http://www.os-templates.com/
Licence: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/">Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported License</a>
*/

Conclusion:

Please carry out in-depth research about anyone you think has stolen your content and dont jump to non-related conclusions.

It will save you a lot of time, stress and writing emails that waste both your time and that of others.

A tip: check the WHOIS Database at Domain Tools and read this blog post.
