    Hey BigDog, you could have supplied your own t-shirt for printing.

    I think that all the printing is done but if another batch is anounced you should do that, if you want one.

    hhmmm,  anyone heard from p0stal? is he still around?

    missed out on seeing there t's, i think it is ok to show the logo if it is advertising for kiwibiker or has a link to this site.

    that is why we went to all the trouble of drawing pics and making the logo in the first place, for this sites identity.

    as for ownership?? me not know, p0stal did all the graphics. but everyone contributed to the final outcome.

    i think it belongs on the site. for the site.

    share the love, but only if you pay.

    Good Idea.

    Are there any plans to do another batch?

    I joined up after the last lot closed.

    I never got the Westie Road Markers emblem or name copyrighted.
    Then one day I saw this joker who was no member of our club wearing a club shirt with the logo on the back and the front embroidered with the club name.
    It seems the shop that did our work were just doing whatever people wanted and couldnt care less, as long as they got their money.

    I think copyright is a good idea b/c afterall it's a fantastic logo and it really puts a stamp on KB's but, if it's too much hassel then asking others to ask permission to use the logo would be good enough I reckon.
    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

    This is what happens when you give permission to use the logo in a small graphic. They start making their own shirts.

    have to agree on the copyright thing here,
    why cant they draw theyre own bloody picture
    Now im gonna chuck SVclub stickers all over my auto corona like a tacky ricer - just to spite them.
    Come on guys, can we do an appeal and everyone pitches in a gold coin for the logo.
