Re: Using pre-made graphics

wow, these responses are sure not what i expected.  Come
on people, I know the web aint very good for copyrighting
material.  there is no legal action anyone is going to
take if I use a image that they claim to be their own. 
get realistic here.  I simply wanted to know what you all
thought about taking a button, or background or something,
and editing it a bit, and then using it.  no different
than clipart.  duh.
