Hey,

If you create a project using Processing, and then charge money for people to access it... Is that legal?

Yes, of course! Please do. Ben and I sell software that we write with Processing all the time. There are no inherent conflicts between free software / open source software / libre software and commerce. The Processing software license makes the restriction that if you modify the Processing source, you need to distribute those changes, but it doesn't apply to the software that you create with Processing.

its like if you type a book on a computer, you can still sell the book, you just can't sell copies of the program you used to make the book with.
