Hall of Shame
This is where I will shame anyone who doesn't follow the terms of use when using a design from Raging Pistachio. There will be no notice that you are on here, although I may email you and/or sign your guestbook asking you to rectify a problem. If you have received such a message from me, you will most likely find yourself up here, so email me, rectify the problem and we can get you off the list, mmmkay?
Have you spotted a design by RP Designs around the net without a link back? I need you to keep me aware of the scum by emailing me with their url. Thanks!
Don't want to be on here? Don't do anything stupid.

Kookoofunk. Another referrer log find. Used one of my Exploding Dog layouts, and has taken off my link on the index page, (although left it on the archives pages). My terms of use clearly state that my link has to remain on every page that contains my layout. Shame on you!
Aesthetica87. Another referrer log find. Used my Teacher's Pet template, changed the image, and removed the whole link panel at the bottom, including my link, and the link to Diaryland. Instead, she's added an invisible link to Diaryland, and my link is nowhere to be seen. On the Shame Page you go!
Yenskie. A while ago I got a tip off that someone was copying some of my layouts on Blogskins. This stupid little girl has taken three of my layouts and put them on Blog Skins. Titanic, Deadly Beauty and Simple Beauty. Simple Beauty has been disactivated on Blogskins due to too many complaints. The other two are still up, although the images are not working. Another "funny" thing, is that she copied my description for the titanic one, which was my submission for a Template Challenge which depicted that I couldn't use any images from the movie. She has other layouts up, which I suspect are possibly also stolen from other designers, which might be worth checking out to see if any are yours. I have sent a complaint to Blogskins on the designs of mine that are still up, but to no avail, it seems.
Lady Aura
No current link for this site. A long battle ensued after I found she was taking my templates, re-working the images and colours, and offering these templates on a "design site". It really riled me at the time, so I've dedicated a section on my site to her, so hopefully she will never open a site again offering other people's designs as her own.

Sugaplum83. I found this in my referrer logs. This person has obviously since then taken the link off the page, but not before someone followed it to my site. This person has since added my link back up on their page. Thanks!

A friend supposedly made a layout for her, but it is heavily based on my Tweety layout, with no design link. This person has now changed her layout to an original RP Designs layout with full credit. Thank you!
