MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 1, 2012 I sure wouldn't be advertising copyrighted items you have done,, on a website that is worldwide...Your just asking for trouble. Wonder what Monster thinks about you selling/recreating their logo? Or Florida Gators? another copyright. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr12volt1338 116 Posted August 1, 2012 I would ABSOLUTELY get rid of the copyright stuff..... The big boys do not play well when you start stepping on their toes and taking money from their pockets.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I understand but if one of the big boy's people saw it, they'd probably make a federal case out it, and you don't need the hassle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 2, 2012 that does not mean im SELLING it..... do you see a price? no... Monster can see it ,,,and you don't need a price quoted...you copied their logo and posted it on the web..you are sharing a copyrighted logo with the world that is not a REAL.. Monster decal, it is a counterfeit..and your even adding the word MONSTER, to go with the ad. for this decal. and you don't own that company. copyright infringement 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr12volt1338 116 Posted August 2, 2012 Even as practice it is illegal to produce any copyrighted image or anything that even resembles the original art work... I learned the hard way it is NOT worth it at all..... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mabscotthandyman 1,410 Posted August 2, 2012 Listen to good advice they are not putting you down just warning you of the hurt that using copyrighted material can bring you and the few dollars is not worth it . Dan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
knucklehead 530 Posted August 4, 2012 Good choice in removing them. Also beware of any customers (you don't personally know), coming in and asking for specific copyrighted images, logo's, etc. When my brother in law, the lawyer, rides up on his Fatboy, you'd never think he's also a part time "Harley rep".
