    "Why is this such a big deal? This guy isn't making millions o ff of the app. META: Every design ever is a copy of something else. Many startups choose to copy certain elements from another company because it was successfully implemented. There's not wrong in copying something that works.

    With that being said, this is not a blatant copy. It's simply rows of data on a white background, with similar (read: commonly used. I'll find examples if this post gets any attention ) icons."

    I'm sorry that there is a rumour that I didn't pay the developer. In the end Marcel decided he didn't want to take any credit, and said "The app is yours, I don't care anymore". Unfortunately this is how it ended up, and I would have liked for Marcel to stay onboard.

    ”Saying its exactly the same seems to be fairly misplaced critique on for 2 reasons

    1.Its like critiquing a twitter client for using the twitter logo. DN Seems to have no issue with people using their logo for 3rd party clients so people do.

    2.They aren't very similar MobileDN has a very harsh blue, and flipping the logo actually makes it flow a lot better visually guiding my eye through the icon.

    Design is all about small details that in the grand scheme of things make big impacts. This is one of the better DN app icons I've seen to date.”

    Hello guys, I'd like to explain how things are.

    1) I am still young, I am learning and I didn't want to offend/upset anyone.

    2 )After some research, you might want to know that Colby Ludwig blatantly copied Hack Later by Ed Wellbrook and Mert Dumenci (just for the record), just changing the colors.

    3) Whoever says the icon is a ripoff from MobileDN, it's just the layer vault logo. As someone wrote:
