...in all things in life, really, but most specifically in regard to using some of your art for cafepress merch. Not for profit. I'm not terribly familiar with how cafepress works, but I certainly don't intend any profit from it. Some of us are considering using at least your fuldog portrait and your OOMOM crest on shirts/cups for our personal amusement.

Any concerns, requests, conditions, or blessings? We will happily comply!

Many thanks, O Bunker-Bound Bassist

I'd also check out Spreadshirt just in case it's cheaper. Assuming the Señor approves of course!

Monsieur gringo. Please approve.

Might I suggest ...

oh i totally want the oomom and the fuldog!
go cult of fuldog!

Don't forget the pirate shirt!

For people like me - who hadn't been around when the OoMoM was founded.

damn noobs!

"Blessed are the noobs for they will inherit the thread."

yeah, but by that time is it worth having? when all the ketchup has been squeezed out and there is just no more beak left to enjoy? i don't know.

Hah, that reminded me instantly of The Life of Brian.

i need a pirate shirt. NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Isn't there some sort of Hello Kitty copyrights that we'd be violating? I mean...uh...liberating? Ahem?

yeah. i find that funny. we are asking for gringo's permission while planning to use those images? well i guess if you are quick and then went underground, for the rest of your life, you might get away with it. just because she doesn't have any mouth doesn't mean she won't come after you, and you won't hear her coming!

Looks satirical enough to fall under fair use to me!

(Or am I confusing copyright law and trademark law?)

Hell yeah, you have my approval and blessings. Use whatever you like. After all, I made all these images for the WGB (and my own amusement) so I'd be happy if someone puts them to use.

About the Hello Kitty image copyright, well, I don't know. As long as you're planning on non-profit merch for a few people, I doubt they'll have a problem with it. But you never know.

No copyright issues as far as the Friday Pirates and fuldog are concerned.
That is, if fuldog has no problem with it, of course.

even i like el gringo.

properly prepared, of course...

Well, Cafepress nixed the OOMOM and the OOCOB shirts (as I expected).

Damn.

My wife just suggested to replace the HK image with something else, but I'm afraid it wouldn't work.
