No but seriously Bridgeman. The best person to ask is the forum admin Dada. Send him a private message.

no copyright as far as I know. it's trademarked of course, but you already knew that.

Well what does that mean exactly if it's trademarked? Let's say a random dude decides to take the layout from 2007 and use it to build a new GamingW. Would that be legal?

Their are eyes and ears everywhere listening and watching eagerly and carefully, whispers in the shadows. Careful what you suggest, you may find the internet police come knocking.

A knock knock..

Man I gotta give Bart some credit for his webdesign skillz. I thought GW was actually a rather easy site, but I don't see how he created that all on his own without the use of PHP and MySQL databases. Just how old is that guy?
 
By the way I've been screwing around with Content Management Systems like Drupal and WordPress, you wouldn't believe the difficulty of something so seemingly simple as re-creating GW's layout.
