    Sadly designs are just html and colors, while they are your propertie (within the limits of how it was obtained). They are easy to replicate and steal.

      Unless you use certain Photoshop techniques to make your logo/url nearly impossible to remove Most people would quit once they realize how much work is needed to make a "General" copy without the original creators information

        Then they'll replace it instead of removing it.

            Exactly, there's no way, so just forget about it. You can try to make it harder, but if someone is willing enough they can steal just about every style they see

              HTML encryption makes it a bit difficult. But say goodbye to search engines

                Maybe for those who aren't very good with coding. It seems people could just take a print screen of the site and code it on their own....

                  I thought i said somthing else with my post.

                  Anyway, just because they can take it, and may take it, and maybe even do take it, do whatever is in your own power to protect your IP, if you find the site distrubiting, contact the host, datacenter, ect. Its not easy but in the end it is most likely worth your time.

                    Use invisible watermarks on your images for your header etc so it will show your copyright information when you click CTRL + A, some tutorials around the web on how to do that.
