Do we have yet another rip-off site?

    I disagree on several points.

    The site's been around in some form or another since at least '98, so it's no webby-come-lately - and probably predates F.COM, otherwise Martin woulda nabbed that domain name, too, when he launched. Despite the green motif in color, the design itself is basic but clean & effective, quick-loading & organized.

    Content-wise, it's a one-trick pony of graphical humor - that's it. Nothing wrong with that. How can you put a fresh slant on making fun of goofy-looking people? And the pictures' accompanying prose is rather literate and entertaining, IMO - kept me reading beyond the second or third sentence of any page...unlike Chris Davies' sad DARK_ANAL_ACCESS.NET. That wanker couldn't even be fucked to run his lame shit thru a spell-checker first, much less exercise any initiative or skill with Photoshop.

    Fugly.net has been around for ages. It is not a ripoff of anything. Although his recent re-design shares a similar color scheme with ours, it is in no way a ripoff of Fugly.com.

    The guy that runs it is very cool and I have spoken to him on the telephone.

    Please do not harass him, but do go check out his site. There are some very funny things on there.

    Okay, thanks for clearing that, Martin.
    (Maybe I had better call off the gift from http://www.doodoo.com now).
