c-prompt's forum controversial issue?

[mondaynightmike]

hehe this site is by far a rip http://stock.xxtax.gov.cn/bbs/index.php

Anyway, getting back to copyrighted images and that say you were to create a table heading image similar to C-promts, maybe different colours, similar shape, would that still be classed as a rip? as i have seen before someone complain of someone using gray buttons and calling them a rip. I am very interested in this a i am learning photoshop and i often take other peoples designs and see if i can create them with my skills. I don't then publish them but i like to see what i can do. Most of the time i don't come no where near close to them.

and i agree i think most people do you photoshop now adays because of the way you can get graphics looking
