Decent stuff, not much of my style. A few things I noticed:

A) I am pretty sure Frankensteins faces is copyrighted, even though you vectorized it.
B) The GE Logo, is copyrighted, I KNOW!
C) The playing card king seems like a lot of colors to be screen printed (4 colors).

[Red Kittie Kat]

Homegrown could get you problems too since its charlie browns face and the Peanuts font ;)

[PrintDriver]

#3 The black lines are too skinny. The colors overpower the face.
#4 Undergroud ? Kinda looks like Linus or Charlie Brown.

Not my thing either but #1 and #2 are ok.

I think he meant him to, because the funny little bird thing is in there too. Not a good idea!

[CkretAjint]

OMG *gasps* I didn't even see woodstock there. That would be a HUGE no-no! :eek:

[Red Kittie Kat]

Yep I missed woodstock too ... a big no no

Before embarking on a project like this, it would be helpful to find out laws about copyright and intellectual property. You are treading on dangerous waters here. I hope you have a good lawyer and plenty of cash if you go through with these.

Twins logo as well might cost you dearly if you use that. Must be from MN.

[G-SIDE]

yeah, we debated over the GE logo, and Peanuts parody. we decided just to put it up and see what people felt. if we decided to take it to print we figured we should look further in the legality of it. thanks for pointing that out though.

PS, here are 2 more designs.*****Advertising removed*****thanks for your commentsn :)

the GE logo definantly could get us in trouble, what we would probably do is just put a G in there (take out E), that should be okay. the twin cities logo i again would just put in out G logo. the peanuts things though should be fine under a parody claus, as it's not really being used in a way that it's supposed to exactly be charly brown or woodstock. i'm not really sure on the frankenstein picture. it very well could be copywriten in some way (that is a screenshot from the original movie, which could be copywriten), though i certainly hope it isnt, because i love that shirt (the homegrown wouldn't bother me so much, im not crazy about those)

I think it's still to close and would get you in trouble.

the twin cities logo i again would just put in out G logo.

Again, I doubt that is safe territory.

the peanuts things though should be fine under a parody claus, as it's not really being used in a way that it's supposed to exactly be charly brown or woodstock.

Again, see above.

i'm not really sure on the frankenstein picture. it very well could be copywriten in some way (that is a screenshot from the original movie, which could be copywriten), though i certainly hope it isnt, because i love that shirt.

I am sure it is cause you didn't take the picture, nor own the copyright or have permision to use that actors face with makeup on it.

I am pretty sure since you will be selling these for a profit that in all cases "parady law" isn't enough to save your butt from the law. Just be original and create something on your own. I mean they are okay shirts but anyone cause recreate/parady someone else's work and sell it as their own. It's just not very exciting or strong concepts over all.
