Blight, it is easy to give proper credit. I "modded" Hitman's AOB whiz wheel, with his permission and knowledge, converting it from .bmp format to DeltaCad format to get a little bit "crisper" printout. Thread where Hitman and I discussed it is here:

1st thing I've ever contributed to the community, and here is what I put in my "readme":

Hi, I'm DirtyHarry3033 of Subsim.com. I've taken the liberty, with Hitman's permission, of converting his AOB whiz wheel calculator into DeltaCad format. The advantage (and only reason I did the conversion) is that a CAD file prints out razor-sharp whereas the .bmp version is slightly blurry. I'm sure that's only my obsession with "perfection", Hitman's .bmp's work perfectly. I just wanted to get that extra millimeter of perfection with respect to the appearance ;^)
Descriptions of slight appearance-related mods I made follow, along with the link to download the needed CAD program, and the limitations of the demo version.

Regarding usage/distribution, this is NOT my work, it's Hitman's - all I did was convert his work to CAD format with his permission. So I'll quote Hitman's readme here:

================================================== ======
These wheel templates can be freely hosted and distributed by anyone as long as:
1.- It is not modified without my knowledge and permission.
2.- No money is made out of it without my permission.

That's all! Enjoy, and good hunting!

See, that's easy! I didn't take credit, I gave credit. If I couldn't bring myself to do that, I'd never have released it and let some newbie think that it was my work.

Some are edited, some are replaced some are platforms and some are added whole. It is the way I have modded the game I play and there are 20 unknown, 30 difficult to find and more than 150 mods! I did check the text files to be sure I didn't use anyone's work who did not want this...
