The only thing that should be copyrightable is direct code in this case.

If you can copy something using your own work... well good.

It's a user interface, not a fictional character or mascot.

Look at the Fashion Industry, where something like 80% of the industries goal is to "Copy someone elses look."

While the other 20%'s job is mostly,  "Innovate somethign new off someone elses look."

Truer words have yet to be spoken in this thread.
