Casper Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Yes. I got some more info from the folks at cafepress and according to them, a law firm representing Ford contacted them saying that our calendar pics (and our club's event logos - anything with one of our cars in it) infringes on Ford's trademarks which include the use of images of THEIR vehicles. Also, Ford claims that all the images, logos and designs OUR graphics team made for the BMC events using Danni are theirs as well. Funny, I thought Danni's title had my name on it ... and I thought you guys owned your cars ... and, well ... I'm not even going to get into how wrong and unfair I feel this whole thing is as I'd be typing for hours, but I wholeheartedly echo everything you guys have been saying all afternoon. I'm not letting this go un-addressed and I'll keep you guys posted as I get to work on this.I'm sorry, but at this point we will not be producing the 2008 BMC Calendar, featuring our 2007 Members of the Month, solely due to Ford Motor Company's claim that THEY own all rights to the photos YOU take of YOUR car. I hope to resolve this soon, and be able to provide the calendar and other BMC merchandise that you guys want and deserve! This thread will remain open for you to comment however you wish, and I'll update it as needed.http://www.bmcforums.com/showthread.php?t=42402 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dweezel Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Sounds so racist and shit, I thought we've moved on since the 60's.Oh wait. It's a club FOR black mustangs. Never mind, than if it's a minority keeping everyone else out, segregation is cool. My bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
