Well, programming is all about practice. Any talented programmer teaches himself 90% of what he knows.

Let me give you an example. I coded a window display routine for SA. This code allowed Soul to make the window any size he wanted, within reason. After finishing that, I realised that the script had other potential. I converted it from an image tiler to a tile tiler. In the matter of about two minutes I had created a whole new use for the same script.

That's not the same thing. That's taking inspiration from something you've previously made, and turning it into something more. I'm talking about coding using a design implicitly created with the goal of being portable - especially when the code involved is so tiny.
