I have a prob. here is what happened.
I belong to another online forum, I purchased a screen printing kit for fun and wanted to try my hand at it so I had a decal from the other forum and it was an easy design that I could trace onto the screen. I made a screen with the forum logo on it and tried to make a few prints onto some paper, none of them came out because I just sucked at it. anyways, i put a picture of the screen on the forum and the owner of the site has sent me a cease and desist letter. I did not think it was illegal to use there logo just for messing around ( I know it WOULD be illegal if I intendid on or actually had sold something with there logo on it but I did not). I had absolutely no intentions of anything other than just screwing around in my house. does anybody have any advice for me? I really like the forum and do not want any problems I think that they dont understand that I was simply doing it for fun and not for money interests.
