Not the same, but pretty close. Modified clip art? Looks clip art inspired at the least. [img]https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2010/10/20/301986-128762931375122-Gwailo.jpg[/img][img]https://p.vitalmx.com/photos/users/12616/avatar/c100_Bulldog_logo_black_1.jpg?1321328696[/img]

We did recently revise our logo due to it being too detailed for the stitching on our hats.

Yeah, you guys said that (about the detailing) in your last thread, and I had that in mind when I posted. I just thought it was funny because it was one of the first results under clip art and...you know.

That all sounds legit, I guess--except where you added a couple rows of teeth.Wink

Also, about a dozen sites around the internet seem to have that full-body bulldog image--some of which are probably using it as a logo--so I guess it's time for some legal action! LIT-I-GATE! LIT-I-GATE!

The best thing that could happen to lame ass T shirt and hat company is if they get sued and close up shop.

Thats their quote, not mine.

The reason the two look different is because they revised the original, they had to start somewhere.

hehe yea, revised. In microsoft paint, used the little bucket icon to fill anything the hat maker couldn't stitch and erase other stuff that couldnt be stitched.

What a joke.

It's pretty bad how similar those bulldogs are. I really hope you didn't pay anyone to fill in a few black spots and add some teeth. If you did, fire them and call a lawyer.

This is the exact image that popped into my head, maybe because I was just at three of these about a month ago...Or wait at least I think I was Smile

I understand your claiming the new bulldog evolved from the old one. It would be stupid of me to tell you that's not your design. I just meant that--if it is yours--it seems it's being used elsewhere on the internet (the full-body one). I wasn't suggesting, as other commenters have suggested, that you're the ones who'll be sued.

Whew, these bulldog logos are trouble! If you've seen one you've seen em all (which was the meaning behind my original clip art comment).

Hello Blitzer, I'm not Bulldog, I'm Golden Retriever and not affiliated with Bulldog.

I quoted Bulldog, because I liked how they admitted they revised the original, but I'm Golden Retriever, got it?

Not trying to be a dick...but if you're a designer and your work consists of "revised" clip art - then you're not a designer.

Saying oh well you have to start somewhere is not helping them out either. They should have come up with their own logo. I believe such a similar logo should be considered theft (if they are actually making money with those shirts). Any 1st grader could have done that on windows 95 paint...
