Can someone create a NASCAR windowblind???

from WinCustomize Forums
I have searched the internet for a windowblind relating to NASCAR Winston Cup or any of the drivers. I have been unable to find any. Can anybody guide me to where I might find such skins? Are any of the top skinners prepared to make such a windowblind? Please respond. Thank you.

The problem is copyright and trademark. A while ago, I started making Windowblinds skins for a couple of hockey teams. I emailed the NHL to be ask about the legality of it, but I was emailed back saying that the use of the logo and the names are protected by trademark, and that I couldn't use it.

Then I guess someone from the NFL should take a look at this page: http://www.mcdeb.com/nfl.html
ok it's mentioned that "All Trademarks are the property of their respective companies." but nothing is mention in the "readmes" inside the .zips.....
just a thought!

It doesn't mean that the person got the permission. Actually I doubt he did. I proabably could have continue to make more NHL skins without the NHL ever knowing about it, but I wanted to be legit, so I actually emailed them to ask.

I began looking into using NCAA logos so we could make skins for college sport teams. Unfortunately its costly and red tape nightmare.
