    • With Replicant, i want to change the design a bit to make it look exactly like the new microsoft vista glassy interface. My question is are there any copyrighting issues in the design that will infringe this plan. I in no way intent to use their source, i am going to design mine but its going to be exactly like windows vista. Any legal restrictions to this? advice greatly welcome.

      Only if you get caught.

      Are you worried about RT or MS?

      Thanks for the advice CG. I intend to make it Vista Style, but oviously withouth the source it can neva be the same, like it is said you can never draw your head twice exactly thesame. I aim at doing the graphics my self but with a little differences, it will not even look like the MS new site not at all.

      I think once modified it is no longer to RT is it? so any legal issues will be mine, though the CSS is copyrighted by them, isnt it? i am not so sure on that one. But i dont want my backside kicked by MS~ ;D
