So I've been updating The Exclusive Shops at Panzo.org. I spent all day Sunday redoing designs, adding new designs revamping the store page and keywording my images at CafePress.com.
Two designs I created (they will be up later with the rest of the non-holiday items) were universal yellow highway "caution" signs. One was "Caution: left brain closed in head" and the other was "Caution: right brain closed in head".
They went up at CafePress late Sunday evening. Yesterday (Monday) morning I had an email waiting for me from CP stating that they had flagged my images because it was possible that they violated the Content Usage Policy.
It turn out that some dickwad alleges that he owns the trademark to the word "caution" when the word appears on clothing.
I was forced to change the "caution" to "warning".
I see an entirely new avenue of income opening up to me. I'll trademark words and license their use.
Once the words are all mine, then those idiots at the university who laughed at my work will pay! They'll ALL PAY! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
