The psd cost is already factored in into everything we do. We do not use the same psds to make new projects (unless they are not accepted, and we own the rights)

We always give out psds when clients request them.. very often we just take care of the work at n/c for them.

But the designer SHOULD give out psds if it's not discussed, and he should factor in the cost (if he's smart enough) and if he does NOT plan to give it out, they should be uprfont with the client. Honesty is the best policy, no matter which way you choose to conduct business.

MGC you are right, people can use psds to create templates of their own... but i have learned a lot of times they just butcher the design, because they cannot do same quality work we do, and they come back to us. At the same time, i dont want to be bothered with changing text, removing small stuff or cloning a section to create a new one in a site... this makes it easier on me.
