I think that if you want something you should give something in return. Of course, the transaction should be equal in terms of degree of difficulty, time spent, work load, etc.
No making one sprite sheet for someone and demanding an entire database's worth of stuff in return. That's just ridiculous (and good luck finding help in the future if that happens). It should be equal. If you need an entire database worth of code, you should be willing to provide an entire database worth of artwork.
It all comes down to communication between two parties and forming a working 'contract'. Know what you are getting into AHEAD OF TIME to prevent disappointment later on. Easy enough.
