Pt.net was started back in 1982. He's had plenty of time to rack up all those posts.

The link in my sig is with explicit permission from IB and I am sure you can imagine it comes with a ton of catches. Again, not to huge of a deal, but please don't make them for a fee, even if it is at a cost or a loss. You'll be hunted down by a band of trolls and handcuffed to a fire hydrant with a sign around your neck that reads, "I didn't mean any harm, but didn't abide by the rules either."

Not a problem. Most forums I have been a part of didnt mind others selling decals- but then again, most forums dont go through the process of trademarking their website. I called myself looking through the "for sale" rules, and didnt see anything about this. I wouldnt have offered if I thought it would be an issue

I don't want anyone to think I am a sign maker trolling for business- I am not. In fact I am a "professional nerd" (network engineer) for a wireless company who bought a plotter to play with and to make new graphics for my ski boat. Sorry for any trouble I may have caused.

Well technically you weren't "selling" it. You were giving it away, but at the same time it takes away from Deweys sticker racket

LOL monopoly would be me keeping you from selling ANY sticker or decal. I am just keeping you from selling any decal that references pt.net. Then there are the sponsor rules that cover selling anything else that isn't a typical classified sell, that's the monopoly thing LOL

By the way, it's not that big of a deal to me, but FWW, if you started making decals for any trademarked or copyrighted item of any company, they could go after you even though you are giving them away. Would pt.net, probably not, but it's the life of Capitalism.

Racket=PIA to profit ratio is proportionate.
