I've searched all over apple's site, and can't find any sort of license covering the user of IB for somethign other than making Apple programs.

So my question is: Is it legal to use Apple's Interface Builder to make navigation on a commercial website? (It is being done as an homage, not because I lack skillz)

Anyone know?

In all likelihood, nobody would even be able to tell whether it was mocked up in IB or Photoshop. You'd be more likely to run into trouble for using Apple-copyrighted artwork (i.e. Aqua) on your Web site. That's how they got all the themers before.

They don't really seem interested in pursuing this kind of thing nowadays, though.
