I could probably argue it - I did NOT use a picture of the shield, I used a free target gif and put my own star in the middle of it, and they certainly don't have copyright on 'say it ain't so'.

but it's not like I care enough to make an issue of it, heh

UUUUH

you're using the symbol

it's not worth fighting lol

it happens, tho

not sure they can copyright concentric circles and a star. A pic of the shield, yes, because the pic is theirs.

but it could have been just a patriotic American thing and nothing to do with Steve at all, haha

but yeah, NOT going to fight

thank you for the help, though!

its disney/marvel

they can and they will lol

its why at work we try to avoid things that are super blatantly using the shield

or at least we used to

idk things are weird now ._.

aww

i think they definitely can copyright it, because it's recognizable as the symbol. If you change the colours and used green and orange then no, it's not Cap, but it's the symbol you used

yeah :C

i mean, that's just how the parody/transformative art industry is, though

nothing but a sea of DMCA's

Yeah. If you want to do parody and transformation you have to transform it ENOUGH, and the only way to know if you have for sure is to get sued and win

Which is totally not worth the aggravation!

exactly!
