If this is going to be the way people wanna be about the thanks button maybe the staff needs to think about doing away with it or taking it away from users with this poor attitude of community spirit. Who's to say he wouldn't have clicked it eventually? Heck, I would have thanked those who were helping him myself until the begging and complaining started.
To those whining about receiving thanks, let me ask you this. Do you think I should demand you click thanks for me because I donate my free time to mod this site? Do you think I should value you less as a member for not doing so?
I don't have that attitude and neither should you!

Uh not so fast there Ninja Mommie...I do believe that there should be community spirit, in fact this site probably has the best reuptation for those Forum traits. However, I can speak from practicality about the frustrations that go along with hondreds of members, nationally, and internationally grabing what they can via down loading art work, applications, and and the like without ever saying thank you. Your wrong Ninja, In fact it should be the other way around. Members that don't thank should be penalized not the member thats being productive and keeping the site going by contributing their developement in what ever capacity. What kind of thinking is that That we just keep churning out art and other contributions and just shut up and dont say anything when folks just keep taking and taking and never say thank you? I don't think so. Look at Developers like AC and what people have done with his S2US App (One he offered for free) that people are now profiting off of. Also I haverecent seen art work that I have designed incorporated in themes on other sites that are being marketed asd if the site owner developed the art. Wrong Ninja very Wrong. Sorry just my 1 cents. lol...
