Copyright law protects ALL of us. You might think that traffic laws are crap, too, until a trucker decides that the double yellow lines don't apply to him and he runs head on into you. Or maybe the OSHA laws are crap, until you are the one blinded or handless from a workplace accident. There are days when I wish that artistic license really was something that a person needed to be tested and trained for before being set loose upon an unsuspecting public. Infringement has nothing to do with whether you are making money from someone else's labor and skill. You might want to read up on copyright laws. Templeton's article on debunking the myths is a good place to start. Carolly
