Bump!

thescientist06 · 28-02-2007, 02:55 AM

just want to get something clarfied.. We can use a picture as long as we get it from a public domain, for example coldplaying.com?
or even coldplay.com?
Just checking. I'd hate to make something great then have it disqualified becaue I couldn't understand the rules properly.

From a previous correspondence with Debs, we were told that:
:

Quote:
The band obviously do a lot of their own charitable causes and so can’t endorse yours, so using their name & image will not be possible.

To me that means that we can't use their photo, period. It's a shame that we have such limitations, but we can still get creative. If you have a design idea that you want to run by Debs first, we can try to contact her (a most difficult thing to do) and get a stamp of a approval before you spend hours working on it.

Yeah.. Cafepress also has its own rules and doesn't allow it even if you took the photo yourself.

From Cafepress:

Quote:
NO use of names, logos, pictures or other intellectual property of musical groups or musical artists. For example, you cannot make Britney Spears merchandise simply because you run a fan-based Britney Spears website or just because you downloaded her image from an internet website. You also cannot modify the name or other intellectual property of a musical group and avoid infringement, (e.g., using Metalika instead of Metallica).

NO use of names, logos, pictures, or other intellectual property of sports teams, colleges/universities, clubs, or organizations such as the Los Angeles Lakers, Harvard University, or The Boy Scouts. Again, modifications may not avoid infringement.

NO photos, logos, caricatures, or other artwork depicting celebrities, such as Michael Jackson or Madonna, or other third parties. Just because you take a photograph of a celebrity does not give you the right to use that photograph on merchandise, even if you digitally manipulate the photograph.

NO use of trademarks, names, or logos of companies. For example, you cannot use the name of a company such as Nike, a company logo such as the Nike "swoosh" trademark, or brand name such as Coca Cola, or a modified version of a trademark, (e.g., "Just Did It").

NO pictures or photographs of products (such as toys). Even if you own a product, trademark laws may still prohibit you from selling merchandise that features pictures of it. For example, you cannot take a picture of your Barbie and sell merchandise with that picture.

So basically any design has to be made by us and be completely original. Anything other than that can be questionable by Cafepress' standards.

Thats a bummer, i started designing a pretty cool one, now i have to start from scratch

yamfox · 02-03-2007, 02:00 AM

I made mine by scratch starting by making my own brushes. So it should be ok.

thescientist06 · 02-03-2007, 05:03 PM

thescientist06 · 03-03-2007, 12:34 AM

oh I just re-read those cafepress.com rules... Does that mean my design is out? I vectored over the picture myself..

RunForTheHills · 03-03-2007, 01:14 AM

Thats an awesome design "thescientist06"...
I'm guessing photoshop? Thats really well done, i hope it isn't fall into Cafepress' "not allowed" list though

yamfox · 03-03-2007, 02:18 AM

Yah, it might. Sorry, bud

thescientist06 · 03-03-2007, 02:23 AM

Dang. It's so good, too.

Yeah photoshop. It took me forever to find a picture of Chris singing from that angle and in that stance... Oh well, even if it's not allowed, it was fun to do.

lunar1126 · 03-03-2007, 02:24 AM

thescientist06, really cool design! I know what the Cafepress rules say, BUT I would say that your caricature of Chris Martin looks general enough to be any singer (of course, the Adidas shoes give it away to observant Coldplay fans). Since this is the case, I think it's alright that we keep it in the running for now. If it does get added to the store and Cafepress has an issue with it, we can take it down at that time. Thanks for contributing! I hope it inspires others to post their designs too!

Collee · 03-03-2007, 02:32 AM

Watching this thread. Thanks to those who have stepped up to contribute a design. Can't wait to see them for real.
