I wouldn't worry to much about that. I like to say "there are no original ideas, just new ways to present them!" . A LOT of my dios I got the initial Ideas from other people's Dios. The Sewer in "Enemy of my Enemy" and the Construction site in "Smoke and Mirrors" were inspired by the scenes in ViolentFX's "My Brother's Keeper". As long as you don't duplicate a scene in every detail (setting, Characters, Dialog) then, in my opinon, you're not ripping anyone off! Take an Idea and give it your own spin.

Trust me, this is Dio-land....not Hollywood! They are the masters of the re-hash! Can you say "Dukes of Hazzard", "Land of the Lost", "The Beverly Hillbillies", "The Addams Family" and "The A-Team". See, if you take an idea and add a spin to it, you're doing better than million dollar Movie Execs and Writers!! If people are inspired by my work and use my Ideas, I'm flattered! That's why I try to post "How-to's" for most of my Sets!
