One of those would look good on a T shirt, or a bumper sticker, window decal, etc, etc. you've got some talent there. I like all of them.

FYI, when you all come up with an agreed upon logo, etc. you need to submit it to the Admins, IB_Tim, IB Adrian or FTE Ken to be sure you are not violating any copyright material.

What you have post in post #1 should be ok, but you still need to get their blessing.

Use of the blue Ford Oval will be hard to get approved because of Ford's copyrights.

We are truly flattered that you would want to copy from the First State, lol.

Looks good to me. It doesn't have to be the ford oval. It kind of looks like a Peterbuilt emblem to me.

Yea, I'm the licensed product designer at my work so I've seen my share of copyright lines, lol. Wasn't sure about the Ford oval but I figure since I've seen it altered (in good taste) on so many other avatars here that it had already been addressed by FTE Mgt. and Ford licensing. I can easily alter the chrome border if it becomes an issue. Or chuck it altogether... wouldn't be the first time a licensor shot me down!

This got me a-thinking... I wonder if they approved those "Calvin wizzing on the Ford logo" stickers on the backs of Chevys/Dodges?

This is part of the Chapter Leader and site guidelines. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/7...-1-2008-a.html and the general site guidelines Internet Brands, Inc. Legal Information and Copyright Notice.

I too, think the designs look great, but you still need to run it by an Admin if you intend on using it for the chapter.

I think its great design.

As far as a copyright issues goes, a chrome oval with something inside would be quite a stretch for Ford to have a problem with. But then Ford does do a lot of stupid stuff against its own best interest.

Good work.
