Made the Statue of Liberty & Chrysler building have a thicker stroke than the skyline.

I say drop the idea because there was already a design that won here that resembled the original I Heart NY shirt and it got taken completely off the site because of legal issues. This would never win. Sorry.

Sent an email to Threadless support to see what they say

Done some digging and I'm not sure why this shirt (http://www.threadless.com/product/844/Spoilt) could get made and mine couldn't...

Yes, the designs on there are more like characterisations of the actual ones, but so is this and I deliberately made it that way (the heart is a different shape and tone).

And using a font can hardly be copyrighted to a company or specific logo (Spiderman & Playstation 3, anybody?)....

i'm just saying that they had to take down one design that was a play on the i heart new york shirts so this one won't be any different.

Technically it can, it's just unlikely.

I'd take out the skyline, it clutters the image. Also, I'd rather see a more valentine styled heart, otherwise it is a hilarious idea.

if you are allowed to sub this, I think you should make the circle with the line through it smaller relative to the heart so we can see more of the heart.

Basically, under Australian law, a parody is considered legal and (I checked in our copyright act) there is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

However, because Threadless is based in the US, I don't know the laws there.

Also, I sent an email to Threadless and they said no, unfortunately. Although, afaik, I could make the shirts myself and there wouldn't be a problem with that.

Forgot to add,

bananaphone, even a font that comes default with my OS? I doubt it...

antiismist, like v1?

i love the idea and the design aswell (the v5 version, but the liberty statue and chrysler with the same stroke weight of the rest). If the fonts are copyrighted, just change them, there are lots of similar free fonts. And dont give up on it.... it isnt hard to make the t-shirt yourself.
