Patrick, At work with a multi thousand dollar app, we make all of our own libraries. Default libraries usually don't cut it when you go to manufacture. There is a lot of fine tuning with your manufacturing houses. I would say that the hobby market cares about default libraries, and the professionals are jaded with "standard" symbols and footprints that were slightly off and cost thousands of dollars to correct. Good luck with the business idea, it sounds like a consulting firm. Steve
