Cigar Logo Decals

in General Discussion
I ordered a new wine cooler last week and as I eagerly await its arrival and gather the supplies needed to convert it to a wineador I have started working on the all important decal for the front door... since nobody makes these and I own several laser cutters I just cut my own. Here is a test I did using plain white label stock and my office trash can. Lame place to stick such an awesome logo but hey, it is the coolest trash can ever now!!!

So now I gotta decide what I want to put on the wineador... the LG 9 logo is awesome and so is the Viaje SB, and so is the four kicks.... so many to choose from... What do you all think? I can cut thin wood venneer, acrylic, any paper, labels, etc... I think the four kicks logo would look incredible in wood! If any fellow BOTL's want a decal PM me and I will see if I can hook you up. I am not in this to make anything and happy to help. I don't think the copyright owners would care since this is just one brother helping out another!

    Just be careful sierrawest. I was in business with my brother as a graphic designer years ago. I got in trouble with a few businesses/companies (just warnings) for distributing decals of their logos without their permission.
    "It's plume, bro. Nothing to worry about. Got any Opus?" The suppose to be DZR

    +1. I did some work graphic design work and we had a b***ch of a time getting copyright authorization to use certain logos. If you're doing for your personal use, you should be ok. Selling them on the open market is a different story, though...

    I would NEVER sell these, they are for personal use. I own my own trademarks and guard them. This is for fun and not for profit... this thread seems to have taken an unexpected turn. As I stated in my original post I am not in this to make anything.... just friends. I was just offering to help fellow BOTL's... nothing expected in return!!!!!

    perhaps, you can start continuing the hobby into a business venture. I will buy anything with Opus X and La palina logos.

    Very cool idea.

    I think the guys are just cautioning you to be careful, and not implying that you'd violate someone else's copyright for profit.

    Keep up the good work, I'll be interested to see your winecooler when finished.
