In truth, I don't think the phrase is unique enough for them to act against. If another company were directly duplicating Threadless' "trade dress", by copying labeling, color, and image layout exactly, or portraying their work as Threadless' own, then there'd be h-e-c-k to pay. Until then, this sorta crap continues.



Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.



Happy to see you stand up for Threadless, though. My girlfriend did the same, take a peek http://www.flickr.com/photos/annalyn/2244629886/.

Too bad the wording is exact, but I've seen PETA (People for the Eating of Tasty Animals) for the past 15 years. Like someone said, it's not reinvention of the wheel.

Would members of "People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals" (PETA) love this T-shirt design? Maybe, Mike Doughney, the Editor of "People Eating Tasty Animals", would.



Where do you stand?
