I don't mind parody, as long as you keep a very clear distinction of what is parody and what is real. That site has mixed material and even links back to my own site on several places. We wouldn't want visitors to associate your site as Qhimm's own, would we?

Which brings me to the next topic. You seem to have reversed the names at the bottom, you cannot claim general copyright since you based it off my original site without explicit permission from me. A more extensive copyright notice is in order, as it looks now you are the creator and I just made a little parody page.

I'm not terribly bothered by it, but it's best done right.
 
oh.. its by itanium.... my bad.misread that one.

yankovic.org doesnt look like a parody of yahoo to me..... go to yourmom.com thats a parody of yahoo
 
But Yankovic.org looks almost exactly like yahoo. Yourmom.com looks like yahoo but smaller and kinda butchered. I like to keep the layout pretty much the same when making a parody.

My bad. I had the wrong address. Click on the link again.

Now...what didi they call sites like this who respect the originals? Ah~ yes. They are called mirror sites.

But this is very funny....  :laugh:
 
Itanium: Please don't be angry, but I don't see any sense in that site ... I mean, the outfit is 'stolen' - you have just added a blinking 'PARODY' symbol and edited some text - am I wrong or is that all? If you would have changed the source code, so there were some funny apps ...
But what you have done is a simple 'up-dated' Qhimm-Site. So if the links and the Source are the same, we also could visit Qhimm's site for what we can get on your site ...

Just think 'bout that...

It may be pointless at the moment but I have just added more savegame editors like FF7ce and FF8che as well as the compiled garden. I am going to add more later. So, uhh, yeah.
 
Mmmm.   :-?  :z  -_-  :isee:   :-?

I have to be honest, I did not see any parody on the site.  It is just the same as qhimm's site.  You should add funny stuff to it.

Sigh... not exactly what I meant with "a more extensive copyright notice". And there's far too much confusion as to who made the site, what it's based on, is this the real Qhimm or what?

From the direction this site is taking, I feel I have to object to a few things. First of all, it's not a parody site. There's nothing remotely funny about it. Visitors are more likely to think "whoa, I've somehow entered a parallell universe". They can easily go through the entire site thinking that it's real. And now you've added other programs to the main list, which is intolerable. People would think I made them!

If you just want to make a useful site, please make your own instead of "experimenting" with my design.
 
Okay, so I have to:

#1. List the creator of each program.

#2. Make it clear that it is a parody site and not the original.

Just keep posting and telling me what you want changed until you are satisfied. I don't mean to be any harm Qhimm.
 
hehe i was gonna say.... thats not funny.....

my advice is similar to qhimms.

make your own layout, trash the 'parody' concept, or make it funny.
 
What is something funny that I should add? I don't know enough about Joey to make something funny about him.  :wink:
 
thats what parodies are.... funny.

criticize something, or write fake news.... anything.
