![]() I said "some" people, DL. It was an attempt to politely say, "if you don't want to talk about it or read it, you don't have to" to the people who were getting upset. |

![]() After scanning through the above topic, it seems that many people here see the 'creation' (images, code, etc) as being of higher value than the program. To use somebody else's analogy, Images are the completed house and PS is just the lumber. |

![]() I guess I don't see how 'Fred' got ripped off. He wasn't expecting to make any money off his work to begin with, so if somebody else uses his design, the only thing he loses is the originality of his site, but he doesn't even lose that really, because anyone who knew his site before would just laugh at the copy of it, and any who didn't know of his site before would most likely be told of it by others if they bring up the copied site. If the copier tried to make a businees by claiming he made the graphics, well, he wouldn't get very far having to make his own design later, unless he actually did have some talent. Certainly, 'Fred' could request that the copier pays him for using his material, but that's only if 'Fred' cares about money, which you said he doesn't. Basically, the copier is giving 'Fred' a wider coverage... more people will see 'Fred''s work and appreciate it for its beauty. |
