Or if you claim that is your own layout (i.e. you made it etc.) and try and give it to other people, this too is jocking. All you have to do is link back to the site where you got your layout and don't remove anything on the layout that says "copyright of..." or something of that nature. If you're doing those two things, you're fine.

ItSmYtRadEmaRk15 answered Sunday August 21 2005, 10:49 pm: All it means is that you can't take out the thing at the top that gives credit to the maker. Most xanga users dont even know how to do that. Don't worry about it as long as you don't change the code, nothing bad will happen. They can't really do anything to you if you do take out their credited name except put your user name in their xanga. Don't worry about it.
