Designing a printed publication is also a creative effort, but if
someone were to take my design and use it for their own publication
(using their own text, of course) I would not consider it plagiarism.
Laziness or lack of imagination, perhaps, but not plagiarism. Of course,
this is just my opinion, and my web site is so boring no one would steal
it anyway. ;-)
