Be careful.  The owner/author/web-designer of/for twisted4life.com has 
done nothing wrong.  To quote the CSS files:

"This file, and any imported stylesheets are licensed under the BSD 
license."

Keeping the copyright statements intact is a requirement of the license 
under which the CSS files are released.  The BSD license expressly 
permits any and all re-use, therefore no theft has occured.

Oh and BTW, plagiarism only applies to literary works.
