Personally, i think if you make something for a server than it becomes that servers property, part that servers identity. If you don't want someone else having ownership over something you've made than you shouldn't even bother developing for graal in the first place. will +rep for this thread though

I agree that using other peoples content to make money is morally wrong (and not being compensated), but unfortunately it is legal in this case. I mean people pay for Graal so they can play other peoples content but that's indirect because you could be paying for zone or a bunch of other content but nothing specific. While on the iPhone games you are buying hats and items directly - things that have been made by actual players. But most people know this going into development (except for Vinka -lol).

Might be a great asset to people starting out, or those looking to heavily modify stuff and turn it into something new.

Dustys free image/tiles thread is great, but I agree that we should have one place where new developers can look for pre-made content (scripts, images, levels, sounds, ganis) and be able to edit them without getting in trouble. We have the code-gallery etc, but if we had all of it in one place and each item was clearly defined for what its purpose is, it could be a very useful resource.
