This is what I believe too! I've heard this debate so many times and seen people very passionate about crediting/not crediting. I guess for me it's simply this: Crediting is a nice thing to do. I want to do nice things, especially for a designer who helped make my memory/story extra-awesome with their creations. I want to be nice to people who may stumble into my layout and want the same awesomeness for their memories. Because I myself have discovered LOTS of awesomeness from people's crediting. I've even gone the extra step and ASKED a scrapper through PM where they got a kit, element or even a font they used. It's precisely because someone had credited a kit that I found my way to SSD
