Hi,

Just started my Second Life a few days ago. Is it okay to make t-shirts/clothing with logos from bands/cartoons and such? Or is that something that violates a policy?

Plenty of people do it...but I'd like to offer this opinion:

ANYONE can pull a logo from the internet...so if you plan on sellin' the shirt for more than a standard texture upload fee (L$10), you're not gonna sell many.

In addition to the idea that just stealing logos may have "ethical issues", it's a better idea to use your own creativity in making something.

Peoples opinions about this are fairly strong. I suggest reading this thread and any others linked within it.

Some SL items using RL logos
