Gaff, my bad. I thought he'd been using it longer than that.

Look, don't mean to criticize, it just seemed a little strong that you were insinuating a rip.

Thanks for the response.

Well the site you list above is a Tumblr site using a theme designed for it here http://paulgiacherio.com/ In fact I'm using that theme for my Tumblelog at http://krynsky.tumblr.com and although I'm not sure of Tumblr's launch date, I'm pretty sure they've only been around 3 years or so. Just sayin

Um, no. That design style goes way, way back to like 1999. I call it panels, or date-panels, in my shop.

Here is another example that predates all of this:

That's a good friend of mine who's had his site set up like that for ages – it's a common layout.

In fact if anything sweetcron is ripping others. That's flamebait right (and I'm of course kidding).
