RickS 39 Posted July 24, 2011 Calvin is a copyrighted design, and all of the sports logo's are also copyrighted, Roxanne is right might be better messing with something else. might be a pretty rough way to get into business by getting in trouble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rodger 527 Posted July 25, 2011 It is a criminal offense , but a civil action is mor likely to happen . It is a roll of the dice & fairly safe from judging by all the people who get away with it .. BUT some don't get away with it & the initial legal retainer will cost more than all the profits . It is sort of like Clint Eatwood said in the Dirty Harry movies .. " do you feel lucky ?

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted July 25, 2011 the peeing guy is copyrighted and so are all the sports logos.. Create YOUR OWN unique design.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodger 527 Posted July 25, 2011 I guess the easiest way would be hiring a graphic artist who doesn't mind doing things like that . A better idea might be to make something original ... the old saying " horse piss " comes to mind .. make a horse in a uniform pissing on whatever you had in mind . Original stuff is cool & might take off . If you intend to make some for yourself , close friends or family deal .. that is 1 thing & fairly minor to do what you want with this ( IMO ) ... IF you are intending to go bigger ... you make yourself & your new business a BIG easy target . There is a thread in here where a gal got sued for making a 95 cent Dewalt sticker . It is the thread that will not die , but I can't remember the title , but 1 of the other members will . remember this very true saying " Fools rush in where wise men dare to tread " . I hope you new busness does well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted July 25, 2011 you ask permission from the owners of all copywritten designs. Usually you will have to sign a contract, pay a license fee, pay the owner a percentage of your sales. Must sell a certain volume of sales. Designs being sold must meet their specifications and quality. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
