It says the following in the TOS (I was bored):

Quote:
 
You may not distribute or modify the standard graphics, HTML, or CSS without written permission from IPS.

My emphasis

Um, wouldn't that technically mean that we can't have skins based on the default?

I believe that's part of the old IPB ToS, just not fixed for IF use, since about 99% of all boards have modified CSS, then most of IF would be shut down for ToS violations.

I'm not trying to say they don't want us to, just that the way they wrote it implies that.

not only IF but a ton of IPB boards would be closed also.

Unless their TOS says something else >_<

That is saying that you cannot redistribute default IPB gfx as part of a skin you say you made.

Might be what it's meaning, but that's not what it's saying.

It clearly says you can't modify the default HTML or CSS either, which is absurd.
It needs to be rewritten properly. :eh:
