I often want to use resources that are free to use but require giving credit/linking back. Sometimes I code based on ideas or coding from people who help me out.
While I can definitely hard-code something into a template like a lot of template creators are doing in the footer (like 'Template created by x and y'), is there some way we could have a credit box where we can punch in all the names and resources we used? Maybe something like 'designed by User - Credits' and it pops open a box (much like when you leave kudos on a user profile) with the relevant info.
Not only will this help in transparency and ensure you're using a template that's not misusing resources, it will also give creators who make template resources, like graphics, more visibility and opportunity to share their skills and resources.

This is a really interesting idea. Maybe it's just a general "more info" area, that could be used for credits or BBCode instructions or what have you?
Yeah that would totally work!
