        depends - since you are not in direct competition - there are many logo's that have the same feature - best to discuss this with your lawyer before going any further. Eg. crowns are often used in many logos from burger king to crown corp that manufactures plastic moldings etc.

          Well, since most companies trademark the name as well as the art, I would say that they would probably have a valid case against you. If the mark is potentially confusing, then they have a case. Just looking at it, I would say that the mark would be potentially confusing as well as damaging to the original trademark holder.

                                        Of course. Can I have a site called McPorno? And have a yellow rounded M with a red background as my logo?

                                          I would think so, and would have to say that it would not be worth the time and trouble.

                                          But Look at booble.com

                                            maybe, maybe not, but why risk it. plus im sure the company wouldn't want to be associated with an adult-related site.

                                                    Because you are not in competition I think it could be ok.


                                                    There is a sign here that looks damn near exactly like the Warner bros logo, but its for a steel manufacturing corp, so they cant do anything.

                                                        Yes, you will get heat for it...

                                                        The reason SNL doesn't get busted is because it is a parody.. Yours is not. You are using your logo as a commercial front end to your business. If you did a post on a blog with that, you can... but you cannot use it as the logo for the blog itself.

                                                          I believe they have the actual yellow symbol registered. If they had the whole thing registered then they would put it closer to the end of T on OUT or at the R of BURGER.

                                                            My first reaction would be to say that yes you would get in trouble for it but then again I see so many t-shirts that have tons of mainstream logos with funny messed up shit on them, but who knows how long they stay around.
