Illegal Dyes

[Watchitgo]

I've had a couple disc golfers ask me if I could do dyes for them. When it comes to selling custom dyed discs where does the legal seperate from the illegal dyes because of copyright issues? Superheros, sports logos, etc.

I know the owner of widye.com told me he was careful about copyrighted images; I think he'd been vaguely threated with some legal action for some design he did, but the details of his account are hazy.

What I can tell you is to avoid Disney characters at all costs!

Just pay me $1 for each disc you dye and you'll be OK.

in general, if you don't have permission, don't use it. Safest bet is to use original artwork. However, if you're not selling online or somewhere where people who care would see the disc, you'll probably be okay. It's like when your dad used to say " Don't let me catch you doing that again."

Selling them might not be a good idea.

I think you are worrying about nothing.

Or if you are super worried, email Dave Mac and see how he gets away with slapping copywritten images on discs.

Just claim someone else did work and just selling the disc.

Just try not to get the color perfect or get one small bleed and say it's a different pic if they ask.
