hettinger_rl Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 So this has been brought to my attention! I have ONLY posted watermarked versions of this logo on here and Dribbble. The team's GM is giving me a call later today to discuss what we can do. He said he was "blindsided" by this last week. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talked to the GM and he agreed to stop using the image and was very apologetic. Turns out he was given the rights by someone else that claimed it was his intellectual property, so he got screwed too. Bad situation all around but they did the right thing in getting a hold of me. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is great. Happy ending for the design world. Too bad you couldn't make a little cash off it! Hastings Walleye is a great name for the area. Your color choices and contrast are way better though. Hate what they did with the black/white double outline. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you able to take it further and find out the person who gave the team the rights? 1 Quote Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Billy Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 I imagine the team is going to sue them. If they do, you might want to contact that attorney and see if you can ride along on a contingency fee. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GM re-contacted me and decided to go ahead and purchase the rights to the logo.

Looking at the examples you posted in this thread, it looks pretty easy to scrub it off in Photoshop or Illustrator, which someone obviously already did. I hope it's the last time you have to deal with anything like this!

Happens all the time. 1 Quote I've got a dribbble, check it out if you like my stuff; alternatively, if you hate my stuff, send it to your enemies to punish their insolence!
