SirNim... Try www.cafepress.com
The quality is good, and the price is reasonable. And you don't have to handle the transactions or the work. Best of all it's free to make a store! I've had a couple shops up on their site over the years.

Copyright? Patent?? for those!?!!?
Copyrights are typically for images, text, music, etc. - it's usually patent law for more 'equipment' like stuff. Getting a patent is not easy (understatement), nor inexpensive. Take another look at his 'products' - do you really think that they would pass any of the tests for originality, non-obviousness, improvement over existing design, etc.? While it's certainly possible, I sure doubt it ... Timekeeper had some very helpful comments on these issues early on in this thread, but there's one more area of possible protection that I don't think was yet mentioned ...
Surprisingly, a sub area of 'trademark' might be his best argument - that the design of his stuff has become uniquely associated in the mind of consumers with the products produced only by him - though in this case the association is certainly a negative one!!
I'm certainly enjoying him getting his just desserts for his rude and inappropriate behavior - and now wish that I, too, had scheduled a trip for this Flower & Garden Festival so I could go visit him for a few more photos! I have a feeling this might be his last year as an exhibitor at the Festival ....

As I just stated, I am designing the t-shirt. I was thinking about putting a little "motto" on the back of the shirt... along the lines of... "Beware the wrath of wdwmagic" or "Don't incur the wrath of wdwmagic" or "Don't mess with wdwmagic" or something like that... :lol: I dunno. Maybe it's corny or cheesy... but would any of you (or even Steve :lol: ) object to the inclusion of that on the back of the shirt? I'm leaning against it, but if anybody who wants to buy the shirt thinks it's a good idea then I'll put it...

I'm quite perturbed: What should I do?
You beat me to it!
I was going to say that it may not be wise to put his pic or any direct reference to him or his company on a shirt and then sell it. I am pretty sure that a court (at least these days) would find you for Libel and/or Slander and/or Defamation of Character.
I love the idea though - but I would seriously find a good lawyer friend to give you some advice first, haha! And I'm not sure the WDWMAGIC guys would appreciate being plastered all over the lawsuit :animwink:
Anyway, let's see what you came up with anyway - I REALLY wish you could print them - because I'd get one!!!

I still don't think I could get away with this on CafePress, though... Don't you think?
I guess I could just print them out myself...
With the old design...
:drevil: In that event, I'll need anybody who wants one to PM me their size and such, I'll print and iron them this weekend, and then send everyone my info and vice versa...
Sounds like a plan, don't it! :lol:
