Re: REQUEST: sig-sized "Darwin" fish

The question then arises >as to whether an ASCII rendition is some kind of trademark >violation. Any opinions, facts? Oh, oh! I better take all the cartoon characters off my ASCII Art site! ;) I think that if people have financial gain from using the TM pictures, then there are ramifications... However, I have heard that Disney is quite adament about keeping their characters as theirs even if there is no money involved..... Most don't seem to mind- as it is 'free' advertising. I am not a lawyer, so just treat this post as my ramblings... -joan BTW, glad to hear that you liked the fish... I preferred the L leg over the J, but couldn't figure what else to use... glad it faces to the right. :) \ / ((^\ -= * =- joan stark \\ \() / \ spu...@juno.com >>/(_.'
