Wow, what interesting responses!!! I'd like to add that many of us simply cannot afford all those scrapbooking luxuries. (Isn't that why we purchased SCAL in the first place?) And I was recently laid off, and scrapbooking is my only source of relieving my stress. I'm really thankful for SCAL because it sure saved us a lot of money. (I figure, it could cost me well over $2K if I have in Cricut products vs. what SCAL can do).
I honestly think copying off other designs are fine for personal use only. No intend to sell, or make a profit off those. Use for your kids' birthday parties. Send out few sentimental cards. Make someone's day a bit better. I think copyrights are overrated. Everything has been done and redone. The government has better things to do than scan for copyright violations. Phhht.
