No. This has already been answered. See Raloth''s post above.

Another thing I`ve been wondering... do companyes hire people to spy stuff generaly, this seems very funny to say but do they look at absolutely everything to see if it`s almost the same with some of theyre work(think at the number of available games these days, it must be tons of materials) or they get an anonymous caller saying this and that ?

I don''t think so, but, if someone''s visiting forums, watching contests and looking around for projects purely out of interest and he sees something familiar and, when he looks a little better he sees someone stole a texture from the cmpany he''s working in, he might just file a complaint. This is the way i think it is going.

let''s say that i have a game that is based on something like scrable but i need the words and the definitions so
(1)can i use any dictionary or what should i do?,
(2)if i must acquire a license where can i get it and...
(3)is there anything like an open source dictionary?


thanx

i want to know about word definitions license too, please answer, does it have license or what
