though gsmile your phrase 'ripping off' isn't how it should be portrayed or interpreted.

the open-source community is one for sharing and the further development of ideas.

maybe from now on with clients i will tell them straight up ...

i can build you a script from scratch and it will do exactly what you want and nothing else, and it will cost a bundle.

or i can take this system that is proven and tested with a large community to back it up, extensible if you ever change your wants/needs and save you some money.

your choice.
But when someone pays you to BUILD a script, you don't take snippets of other peoples' scripts. If you paid someone to build a script for you, you wouldn't want them to take snippets off free scripts, would you?
