Default Legal to sell interfaces?

I'm working on a project right now. A project that requires great depth into the game and a good deal of time. So much that I would feel time wasted just giving away such valuable information.

So I was wondering if anyone had anything on the legality of selling your interfaces and the different aspects of it. Of course it would have to be your own code, images, and all that I know. But is there anything preventing us from selling our one offs?

Default Not to snap at you or anything but...

I'll be nice and say thats a horrible idea. We all learn and figure this ui stuff out together, and i think its wrong to want to charge money for something that is so community based. Everyone builds off of everyone else, and if it weren't for people like Dolby, Kudane, and all the modders who do stuff for free, mods would be nowhere as advanced as they are now. If we have people whipping out a credit card everytime someone figures out a new trick, modding will go nowhere fast.

(not to mention that you really can't patient an interface or feature, so whatever is so special will be copied by others, not maliciously or anything, thats just how it works.. people like to tweak stuff) and i really dont mean to snap at you, I just think its a crappy idea =)

First off: I understand completely where you're coming from.

But what I'm doing I will be glad to release the code to. I would just take out all my research information relating to ingame stuff that would be the thing I'm really charging for. Just the information that I'm digging up while adventuring. The code is fair game and I'll gladly post it up when I'm done.
