For clarity, I've never pretended like the code was made by me if prompted. If that makes sense. Like, if someone said, "I love how you coded this page," I'll be like, "Thanks, but it's actually based off of THIS page by someone else!"
pretty sure as long as you aren't ripping entire pages from the source and not editing them at all, nobody cares? heavy inspiration is fine, hell, i have linked credit to boothworldindustries for being a major inspiration with my index. as long as you name, you're more than fine
that's how most people learn I think and i dont see it as an issue, the issue is if you copy paste someone's whole site or obviously take like chunks of it out.
I think it's alright- even flattering for some folks when credit is given. It's the difference between "hey, your code gave me ideas on how to do my own page" and "I wholesale ripped someone's code and claimed it as my own original work". Heavy inspiration happens, learning from examples happens, picking up ideas from others is normal, and you're doing just fine by the sound of it.
I always found it flattering so long as you gave credit back? I took heavy insp from your chatbox, and honestly, no other design fits as well. And recreating someone else's layout (w/ credit) is pretty heavy flattery.
On one hand, it might strike similar to art theft and I get that, but what I think people forget is that programming is not inherently an art. Now, we make it into an art, yes, but we're programmers first and foremost, and programmers don't reinvent the wheel. We swap chunks of code back and forth, and so long as you point to the original source, I'm pretty sure it's fine.
no idea when the new site's gonna be done and live, but i'm trying to get it done maybe this month??? once its done u should make sure that any links u have to my site arent broken
btw https://netfriend.neocities.org/ez-gallery/ if anyones used this, ive been having trouble with having the image directly go over to the link instead of using the lightbox, is this an esoteric issue or am i stupid (note: i'm directly hosting the photoviewer stuff in an attempt to fix this)
update: figured it out,,,,HTML IS SO FUN AND COOL I LOVE IT WHEN ITS SENSITIVE TO WHERE ITS PLACED (sarcasm)
if you like the way someone does something and it is not a free to use template, i recommend looking at how they do it and learning for yourself. i recommend learning it for yourself even with free templates but i am rather lazy. if u "steal code," steal bits rather than whole pages and modify it. and for sure credit when appropriate. don't make a fool of yourself and respect the work of others.
