Demo sites

[Static]

Hi all

Due to the fact that most themes are made by altering the css file and images, it makes it very hard to stop people from downloading my pro themes from the demo site.

I believe my pro themes are very well priced compared to many other people offering pro themes (for any platform), and i do this to make it easier for everyone. In my opinion, the time it takes to steel a theme from a demo site is far greater than the cost of a theme. When building a site for a client, designers will charge anywhere between $25 to $100 an hour, or even more, so comparing time and money i guess these people steeling from demo sites have very little value on their time.

So for now on i will no longer be offering demo's for any future themes. I will try and display as many screenshots as i can to cover the themes, but until i can find a way to secure the demo sites, im afraid this is all i can offer.

I do appologise to all the honest people.

If anyone has any ideas or a solution for this problem, please post a reply.

Check the forum threads about mail folder, there are some htaccess settings there that should help you lock the tpl files from being accessed.
