Hello ClearLeft employers,
I'm very sorry for this issue. I'm really surprised not less than you. We don't have a designer so we've hired freelancer to do it for us about 8months ago. I'm trying to contact him to solve this problem. Anyway I promise that our site design will be reworked from the scratch within 24 hours. It is 9.30 pm here but I'll do best of us to solve it asap. I hope for your understanding, please be patient.
Again sorry for this ugly issue.
I’m confused

Inappropriate?You could have so easily taken ideas/inspiration from them and created something of your own that stood out in its own right, instead of plain old copying.
I’m sad

Inappropriate?Well, that’s kinda embarrassing :D
Experts? ohrly?
I’m amused how badly you just got owned
-
Inappropriate?Terrible way to promote your services. Copying other people's work (and doing a piss poor job at it too) is not the way to be "Experts". Only frauds.
I’m angry

Inappropriate?Oh dear me. This is rather bad. Fine line between inspiration and pure copying - ok its not that fine. Even the same EVERYTHING!
I’m in shock that even the gradient is the same

Thanks Eldar. It's not the first time we've seen a freelancer take our work and present it to their innocent client as original. -
Inappropriate?Why do people do this sort of thing? Foot, bullet; bullet, meet foot!
I’m waiting for the site to disappear in 3... 2... 1...

Inappropriate?This seems to be a case of a lousy designer. I accept the companies explanation. This happens more than you know usually it gets caught sooner and with less noise, and usually before it goes live...but c'est la vie, they are going to fix it, which is good. and the right thing to do
-
Inappropriate?Blame the "freelance designer" all you want, but when your company name is "Hire-Experts LLC", you better damn well live up to that name by hiring experts of your own, even if they're contractors or freelancers.
I’m angry

Hmm, you have a point there, I didn't even think about their business domain, they should be better at hiring freelancers and this freelancer should not be used again.

PS. awesome jumper :)

Inappropriate?You should name and shame the freelancer and/or their company. They've made you look very bad.
I’m shocked

Inappropriate?This is very bad in fact so bad I wrote a blog about it!! http://blur-designs.com/blog/youve-co...

Inappropriate?Fortunately they have rolled back the blatant copy, but I suppose if I were in their shoes, I would probably at least have changed color schemes. Unfortunately the new design is not very appealing. Try again Hire-Experts.com I'll stop following for now, at least it was not as bad as Fiouret.com Which did not even change logos.
