Hey everyone,

I am putting together a resource page directed towards a set group of people and wanted to include some scripts available to them. Can I include scripts that are included on gimpscripts.com since they are under "General Public License"? I notice gimpscripts includes the person who uploaded and their website, do I need to include that?


**edit I see the license info once you goto download. It includes the original owner and all that good stuff. I will include that page unless someone else mentions anything.

Thank you!

Welcome to Gimp Chat. Please read over the licenses here: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.html

That page spells out what is and is not allowed under GPL. Anything further that what is explicitly allowed under GPL would be a violation (reselling a script for profit) or on the flip side a common courtesy (asking permission from the author) which is not required.

Hope that helps..
