    Business practices like this undermine initiatives by the design community to be treated as partners at clients' tables while enjoying due respect and fair compensation.

    I'm not sure why this is even a question that needed to be floated. You're seriously asking if it's okay to rip someone else's site? Seriously? In doing so, I'd hope you wouldn't charge Client Y for any design services, since Client X has paid for them. And after you're done knocking this out for Client Y, consider sending them Client X's address so they can send a Thank You card for bankrolling their online presence.

    Also, if you go through with this, as you've described it, please don't post in the future about clients undervaluing your services. Please don't post about anyone lifting your work. Please don't post about losing prospective work to designers of equal talent/capabilities that low-balled the shit out of a proposal just to price you out.

    Seriously? You seriously have to ask?
