Hello, I have a question about this plugin license Can i use it for commercial uses like part of a WordPress theme on market like themeforest If I can not, is there a paid commercial version to use? Thank you :)

I'm not a license guru but @chriscoyier picked a LGPLv3 license for this project; so as far as I know this license does allow the plugin to be included in a commerically sale-able product. But I'd wait for Chris to chime in here.

Thank you @chriscoyier license page telling me use any thing you made in css-tricks on anything and This generosity of you, but some what http://css-tricks.com/license/ says contrary what LGPLv3 license i think!!

see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#GPLCommercially

Why the plugin license not under creative commons http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/, I think this license fit what you said in http://css-tricks.com/license/

Thank you for your kind reply

The point: I don't care about licensing.

If that's a problem for you, sorry, you'll have to use something else.
