Wait till one of you catches a client altering a template into 12 different sites , just by changing text , colours etc ..
Your policies will change .

The source isnt the project .

I release PSD's for logos , and sites ( if I am asked and payed and extra amount and I thouroughly trust the client not to build all sorts of templated sites )

Also you'd be surprised how slightly altering a site template will leave you with a couple hundred dollars worth of gallery templates

Also , I have noticed after releasing PSDs , you will start noticing the same layer styles start showing up in different stuff .

A PSD is something someone can learn design from , we arent selling a design lesson , we are selling a website design or what ever it maybe .

After all why buy 10 gallery templates when You can buy one get the PSD and make a 1000 .

good call
