Does anyone have a good quality bolt face logo pic that they could post here please.

I assume there's no copyright ...

just find the largest .jpg, .gif you can and have whoever is cutting the stickers vectorize it. Shouldn't be hard to do it in corel draw or some drawing program.

Don't sell them tho. The logo is copyrighted.

Reproducing infringes a copyright regardless of the reproduction's use.



I would make something else with your free stickers.

IANAL, but if he is in the U.K., not sure if the copyright applies, unless international.

In any event, they are so inexpensive, buy a few from the arf store, and use the freebies for something else

edit: UK and USA are signatories to at least three of the international copyright treaties, so you are out of luck, legally speaking.

Send a message to GoatBoy and ask.

This.

My friend was dating a girl in the UK and having a business send something over is a hassle. He'd get it delivered to his house and then send it over as a gift and cut down time and xosts.

Requirements of "fair use"

4 determinations must be passed.  There is obviously a lot of grey here.

1.the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes;
2.the nature of the copyrighted work;
3.the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
4.the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.

In the US, most of your trouble would come with #4, especially since you'd be making repros...

Perhaps a legal eagle here can explain it to me, but how can a near scale graphic of an unprotected item be subject to copywright?  Is the color and shading scheme enough?  

I could see it if the bolt face was a component of a larger graphic (ah-la the Satue of Liberty in Liberty Mutual's logo), but as it stands, that's all that's there...
