The Dye A Day Thread!

[scarwig]

Philman, you might want to re-think using that ripper skull in your logo. that is a trademarked image of Powell Peralta's

I bet their lawyers are better than yours.

 

[agent_peebody]

^i said that once before

 

[philman]

When they send me a cease and desist I'll stop using it. They also encourage people to use there is a whole book of people using it on different forms of media.

Bennet you're right I'll resize that banner. I kind of half-ass added it to my sig last night and was too tired to resize it.

 

[scarwig]

Do whatever you want, playboy.

I can lend you an ounce of creativity/originality if you need some.

 

[philman]

Dude wtf is your problem? It's just a design. If I had more time I would use something else.

 

[scarwig]

No problem at all. Judging by the fact that you took the time to PM me it would seem like you're a little sensitive about all this. (and quite possibly new to having your b*lls broken on the internet)

Have fun with your business!

Do you have any dyes to add to this post or are you just trying to hijack the thread?

 

[philman]

Thanks! Have fun being a keyboard toughguy!

 

[agent_peebody]

do your thing, philman.

haters gonna hate.

 

[scarwig]

If trying to help someone not get sued is hating then i'm a hatin' ass hater.

 

[agent_peebody]

not just you scarwig, philman gets a lot of crap for that dye.

"it's a logo"

"it's not original"

"don't have it as your avy and your signature"

i'll admit, i hated for a bit because it was already a logo. but then i really looked at how difficult of a dye it is to pull off correctly. then i saw that he has done more than one of them, and they all look the same.

propz.

yup.

 

[agent_peebody]

that dye is sick. he plots part of it, and painstakingly pieces together the small spine pieces (IIRC). plus, it's perfectly executed.

 

[scarwig]

the dyes are awesome.

I'd be more concerned with the logo being on his web page. I'll mind my effing business

 

[jdw80550]

I'm going to bet that Powell would love that their brand is getting exposure in another area. FREE MARKETING!

I think your reply was taken taken that way. Correct me if I'm wrong but when you tell someone you will lend them Creativity/Originality you are insinuating that they themselves are not creative. If that was not your intent then fine. Go on your merry way.

 

[cfair]

I think it would be cool if the dyer guild took a stance on dye work in the way of originality/intent... but maybe I'll bring this up later...

 

[philman]

Good luck with that.

 

[philman]

As far as logos/designs go, there are so many logo jacks here it's not even funny. I freely share the stencils that are not mine including rip.Like I said during Okthrowberfest I did that dye because I grew up a skateboard rat and am still one at heart. I use the rip disc in my banner now becaue it fits the color scheme of my site. If/when I do something else I'll use something else. Powell Peralta hasn't been relevant in the skateboarding world since the 90's so I doubt they give a crap if that design is on a disc on my site. Just like I doubt Pink Floyd is going to care if AP or myself dyed the walking hammers on a disc.

Ok enought ranting someone post some effing dyes.

 

[philman]

Crystal Nuke I did for my buddy.

If you haven't seen one of these yet they look cool. They have the armageddon stamp on the bottom which I left on.
