onefurlongout Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I assume that the current swfc crest is under copyright but does the same restrictions apply to older badges/ crests if I wanted to use an older crest for personal use would I still need to ask permission from the club?

Do you think the club would be organised enough to actually know and then do anything about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their logo looks alarmingly similar to the old SWFC logo. Funny thing is that Drake tried suing Belroy because their owl looked too similar to his OVO logo... Good grief, maybe we can counter sue Drake.... Of course the Drake one has the "Batman" look to the head... (Drake is on left, Belroy is on right)....

There are two different words in French for “owl”. Hibou, for those which have the ear tufts, and chouette for those which don’t. Question is, which are Wednesday? If you go off the current crest, we are hiboux, but the previous one we’re chouettes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
