I'm new to xanga but I really like it. I want to make my own skin. And I just signed up for a web class. My teacher is teaching us the basics right now but he said one of the best ways to learn is by looking at what other people do. I tried making a skin from that tutorial but it didn’t come out so well. I thought maybe if I looked at what other people make maybe that would be a good way to learn. But I was wondering if this is considered jocking? I mean if I wanted to use someone’s code as an example is that wrong? I wouldn't be using their graphics but more just how they organize their code and all the different kinds of code you can use. Kind of like I'd be borrowing their style sheet. I wouldn’t be using any of their graphics or claiming any of anyone’s work as my own. Am I allowed to do this or do people not like it? I'm totally for giving everyone their credit and I would if I ever used anything, but do I have to ask for their permission or anything before I can? I hope no one gets mad which is why I'm asking first.

Well if you KNOW the code is everywhere and can be found on the internet with a simple google such as "splash screen" etc... that means it's quite common and it doesn't really matter as long as you don't use the same image..
Although technically everything is copyrighted on the internet =O |
