Eduardo Carrillo and “Anubis” made an Apple iPhone clown fish themed skin for the PSP, and the results are quite impressive…

UPDATE

It seems that this theme was stolen from one of our forum users, Vibestar

Check out his original release here (http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=48888)

We at dcemu do not approve of stealing others work, and we would like to apologize to Vibestar, for the mistake

How Do U Put This In?
Where Do U Put This In?

[DeleterX]

NO idea but looks......errr it look...... watever :D

[Vibestar]

This is stolen..... This is mine

What the f*ck is this. Why does somebody just post stuff from somebody else. I never made it to the frontpage whit all of my effords. I was never asked to use this theme I made and it took me quit some time because I made the icons from scratch..
This is no good beginning of the day for me. I'm a little pissed here. If you can't make stuff yourself why ripping it of somebody else.
I think it's really lame guys.... Hope to here some more about it.

If i were you I would contact one of the staff members bro, but not Wraggy. He doesn't usually answer PM's.
Don't let anyone take credit for you shit bro.

[Vibestar]

who should I contact then. This stuff is even on playstation.com forums. And the guys talks about it if it is his own baby.
QJ it's the same.

[dejkirkby]

I dunno about the other sites, I don't go on them, but here maybe contact Cap'n 1time or DS69 or Kaiser.

[Vibestar]

This is so uncool. Made this skin a while ago. Nobody even reacted and now because Eduardo Carrillo and “Anubis” (who are they) posted it somewehere else it gets the frontpage.

[Scorchiolio]

:( That sucks. But yeah, you really did a great job on those themes ^^. They are all really good, and in fact I may use the mario one or the Apple one.

Hmm..I guess contacting Kaiser or another admin might be your best bet.

(one thing about this): It proves that a lot of people read the dcemu forums :)

[Vibestar]

Yeah that's true. But not so many that they could see this was already posted.
The other day I was working on this skin to make the other icons (I made them from scratch so they are original). The thing is they ripped it completly. Even the background.bmp which I use for the blurry effect untill the background is loaded. Onlything they added is the font and I don't think they made it.
Good to hear that the mario/nintendo theme is also good (icons are not mine).

[SpooForBrains]

Vibestar, sorry to hear about this. Hope you get it sorted out.

[S34MU5]

Videstar, I posted at that link and backed you up.

I hope you are telling the thruth.

That marop theme is really good.

[Dillvill92]

if its yours, how do you install it???
hehehe i just wana know lol

[Vibestar]

what do you mean by how. Go to my original link and download that. It has a read me.... with good instructions.
Still no word from any moderator. I can't believe this. At Qj somebody said I should stop complaining. Because if I posted it first (and made it also) and he didn't knew about it it was a bad post. So if you make something but not everybody knows it you can steal it and put up under your name a month later.
Hmmm quess what I created a new firmware. I'm gona call it 3.10 EO.... ;)

[pt9087]

Thats kind of funny tho, glad you have the credit for this now tho cos to be honest they are realy good.

[Basil Zero]

i hope u resolve all conflict

and good work by the way

[Vibestar]

Strange thing is that this theme was almost a month old. And now by mistake/ripping it got populair.
Ah it made me make V2 so it's a good trigger.

hows my theme yo? hacked it up.

[Shrygue]

That theme looks amazing, especially the blue waves in the background!

[pibs]

thought i had seen that theme somewhere, hey vibe i really like your mario one from back in january, think you can add some more for the side menu like on the usb network connections etc cuz those are customizable now.thnx.

keep up the good work and forget about those damn thieves.

[adamespi]

lampro how u get that background black

[Squidman]

well, i'd actually like to clear Anubis's name, on the pspupdates forum, some1 wanted to remake the rco for there 3.03OE-C PSP or something like that, so he wanted the icons and didn't have an account and was whining about not being able to ask for them and couldn't find it on here again, so Anubis made a batch file [[that he did not distribute]] to extract the icons, he did this a while ago. he did accredit you Vibestar, he didn't know ur screen-name but he said something along the lines of "I did not make this, accredits the original creator"

[Vibestar]

well, i'd actually like to clear Anubis's name

It's settled. Had my day of fame. But were is Anubis to say sorry ;). I shall continue the work (tnx icon injector 3.0). So keep waiting till a better release of mario/nintendo etc etc.

[S34MU5]

Here's the deal

I posted on that original link saying ti was stolen from videstar.

and i had to leave my email

I have recived to emails from a moderater at that site.


Hi,

If you're a friend of Vibestat PLEASE ask him to e-mail me back. I've e-mailed him two times regarding this matter already, however he did not reply.

The thing is that earlier another person (Eduardo) e-mailed me and claimed that it's his work, that's why he is credited. He also posted that on his board and even on Youtube. His e-mail transcript follows:

"<br />About the iPhone PSP skin you posted for the PSP I would like to be recognized for it beacuase I made it here is proof I made a Youtube video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFsauYZG9a8
and I posted it on Playstation Underground here http://boardsus.playstation.com/playstation/board/message?board.id=psp&thread.id=2802415
thank you"

So to be honest I do now know what to think. I would like to get back to the bottom of this but Vibestar won't e-mail me back... Until he does Eduardo will be credited, at least because Eduardo took the time to e-mail me and Vibestar didn't :-)

Best,

Dennis

Comment:
This was not made by these people, it was stolen from Vibestar


and then


P.S. I just noticed that the e-mails I've sent to Vibestar are bouncing, so it means he provided wrong e-mail address. Would you kindly be able to give me his working e-mail address or maybe give him mine?


So vibestar if you would like to email him at
address removed. if you want it PM me (vibestar)

that would be great.

Hello Dennis,

A Youtube video on 1 feb is no proof. Another post on 11 feb is still no proof. I have the PSD (photoshop files), the ai files and the eps working files if you want. I can send them over for you. As for the clownfish background I can not take credit (it's on Google) but for the iPear I can. I made this logo because I think the apple logo is lame. I even use this iPear icon for my personal directory. Where is the proof of Eduardo for that. I can send you the files (you can even check the date).
The best proof I have is a link to the DCEMU network that is a good website for lot's of PSP fans. This is the acording link. http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=48888.

As you can see it's posted on the 11th of january (that's a month ago). The iPhone theme is not the only one it's a theme pack. One way or the other it wasn't a succesfull post and I did get some reactions (as you can see).

I checked the file you link as a download and it's modified (bad modified). In the left uppercorner there are some sloppy pix's (if you rip it rip it good). This made me even angrier.
I've put a lot of efforts in these icons and use them aswell in windows (128*128, and not just 64*64). I just don't like it if somebody uses your work and want credit for it. That last thing is my point. I don't care if I get credited for it as long as some faker doesn't.
One thing was good about this day. Because of my anger and I wanted to proof my self I made a Version 2 with exact the same start material.
I hope you're going to do what's right. Get the whole article down, to be sure no one is hurt, or state which one is the real creator.
I like to here soon from you.
Best of wishes,

Vibe Star

Good stuff Vibestar and death to all lame-ass stealers.

[LAMPRO]

ykb- good lookin mayne. found it all online. modded with the knowledge learned during dh days. credits go to those who know. i learned from them.

pibster, yes youve seen it before, ive had svc dumpin a bunch of pics, postin them a bunch along the way on other sites. also, you may have come across those whom i learned from, who have similar themes.

adamepsi- i found a 1-12.bpm in all dark colors, i replaced it on flash0 in recovery.

good luck yall.

credit is paid to whom credit is due!! All Praise!! lol.

[Scorchiolio]

^^ Glad to see it was worked out.

Oh, and LAMPRO, I like the theme, but the font is a bit unattractive :)

[Squidman]

It's settled. Had my day of fame. But were is Anubis to say sorry ;). I shall continue the work (tnx icon injector 3.0). So keep waiting till a better release of mario/nintendo etc etc.

lol, as i said just clearin' his name. he prlly doesn't evn know about this whole fiasco over here, he is a member [[i think]] i can tell him over on pspupdates if you like

[dennis_s]

Hi Vibe Star,

I *finally* received the e-mail needed to activate the forum account on here, it took "only" about 48 hours to arrive :-)

Anyway, I just came here to apologize personally for the confusion our news article caused. Originally we did not credit anybody for the skin, since it was sent to me by a friend who downloaded it off some file sharing server, so we just wrote "some creative PSP owners".

However, afterwards Eduardo contacted me and asked to be credited. Since he brought sufficient proof (post on forum/youtube video) I did not mind doing that, so I credited him and Anubis. At this stage I had no idea that someone else was responsible for creating the skin.

However I believe that the situation is resolved now. Since Eduardo and Anubis did do at least some work on that skin I left their names in the credits, but also added your name as the original designer. You can see that here: http://www.iphoneworld.ca/news/2007/02/11/sony-psp-iphone-skin/

Furthermore, I added your new v2 onto our download server while giving you full credit this time: http://www.iphoneworld.ca/news/2007/02/13/iphone-playstation-portable-skin-v2/

So in resume, I apologize once again for this misunderstanding and hope there's no hard feelings. Keep up the good work!

Best,

Dennis

That's a nice one.... On step closer to world peace.. ;)
Tnx for the reply.

Oh, and LAMPRO, I like the theme, but the font is a bit unattractive :)

im a graf writer at heart so it appeals to me- there were others with a similar style, but the size and the style fits me like a fatcap on a krylon. see my sig.
