definitely borrowed.. but i highly doubt the original was *really* the original as spacedog pointed out. none the less though

Brujah · 08-22-2006, 08:42 PM

If it was "Borrowed", maybe they intend to give it back.

I'm not an attorney, so please don't take this as legal advice, but . . . trademarks tend to apply to the area in which an organization is doing business. If JayMan were making biker leathers or starting a military dictatorship, I could see that logo being un-trademarkable. But he's making adult niche web sites and, honestly, before seeing this thread and without knowing any background, I thought the logos were so similar that I assumed they were based on a dingbats font. And JayManCash sure as heck had the design first. Not that that is probably worth a lawsuit

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some Liz Vicious banner spots to work on setting up. quantum-x, please hit me on ICQ when you get a chance

I would say they are similar but now here near a "copy"

Magix · 08-23-2006, 06:14 AM

You must be joking... I don't see a rip-off there.

Buzz · 08-23-2006, 06:50 AM

IMO:

it MIGHT be inspired by the logo
BUT it's not that identical to call it rip off

sorry.

"inspired by.." - maybe
"borrowed"/"copied"/"stolen"/"ripped off" - uhm... no.

unless you are trying to say you invented skulls.

not only that, the logo they did is 10 times better than yours.

Im really not surprised...

baddog · 08-23-2006, 11:02 AM

alienq invented wings

Toonlogos · 08-23-2006, 01:48 PM

They definitely ripped off the skull, and it was a stupid thing to do, as any artist can surely draw a skull. They should apologise and pay a compensation if required, for honesty's sake.

REßEL · 08-23-2006, 04:08 PM

If it came to it I think Harley Davidson would kick both your asses in the stolen logo stakes.

ah that sucks mate.. get 'em back by adding some of their style of shading to yours to give the skull that chromed look.

detoxed · 08-23-2006, 05:27 PM

Seems like his inspiration may have been the same as yours, the shape of a human skull.
