    What is the punishment....

    ...for copying someone's colour scheme? I had toyed with the scheme previously, but then I saw someone with it on this site and now I like it even more. Will I be cast out or shunned? Or will it just be taken as a compliment?

    I would think the later.

      always a compliment and you cant get slated for painting a colour scheme that you really want. go for it.
      name the owner and bike and see what ther opinion is

      Just remember, an opinion without 3.14 is just an onion!

            People have copied mine, only they changed it a little bit... That's OK, I copied it from someone else and changed it a little bit.

                  MisterCinders, you've got a big yellow compliment coming your way real soon. I was going for an early jaguar primrose yellow, but now it's here it looks exactly like yours so I thought I may as well come clean.

                    Two words - Who Cares? I've seen lots of blue bikes on here and to be honest, they all look good so why should I complain if mine looks similar?

                      My 2 bikes are stock, there's lots of copies out there, somewhere, but I don't care.
