If he submitted them and they used it, then why is he so pissy?
[QUOTE=Joannou1;19363309]They offered him season tickets awhile ago, he turned them down and persisted in taking them too court / suiing them.[/QUOTE]
He's not a fan, he's a greedy fuckstick. If my favorite team, the Sharks, took a logo I submitted, I wouldn't ask for shit, I would be downright flattered.
It's crazy to think that a team would use a logo designed by a fan in the first place. I can't think of a single team that ever used a logo that some guy sent to them. They just don't do that, they hire companies to design it for them.
Yes, you can change the file type, dummies... weagle.jpg too weagle.png... You want me to make a video to show that you are wrong??? Anyways, you will all see, lol, I can't wait to see the looks on your little stupid faces when they setlle on an agreement..
@Tomahawk, Dumbass. They denied the fact that they had taken anything from his logo. he had worked very long, and TRUST me, he's a perfectionist... He takes a long time. DOnt doubt me...

It doesn't matter, he is a greedy asshole that is obviously doing this for the money. If he was a true fan he wouldn't try to rob his favorite team.

It's okay...just calm down. Breathe in, breathe out.

If the Capitals and the NHL think they can win a case without giving up a dime, they will. Like I already said, the logo they used was designed by people who would never have seen the logo your father designed!
Tell your dad to get a job instead of sitting around for 2 years drawing a logo then getting butthurt because they didn't use his exact one and claim they stole it.

You are a bitch, you know that? He's NOT DOING THIS FOR MONEY. And He's not greedy. We live in our grandparents house, we need the money obviousley. BUT that's not the only reason he's doing this! He feels as if they have taken conecepts from his design and manipulated it into their own logo. Also search up on google, the lost symbol capitals

You can pretty much decipher the Capitals line of thinking when they made the logo. As I showed before, they already knew that they could make a W out of the top of the Capital building. All they needed was something to represent their team. An eagle? An animal that represents the government that is based out of the city the play in? It's not that hard of a design to come up with!
And like I've said way too much. It was fucking designed by people who would have never seen the logos your dad designed and was updated based on suggestions by the fucking players themselves!
Sadly, the design put into that website is total crap. That just destroys all relevancy.

How is the design on the page crap. It was aranged for actual people who are interested in it to hit them in a certian way to agree with what he's trying to say!
Doesn't anyone agree that this is a rip??!
Who the hell uses corel draw anymore, are they even making new versions of it? Tell him to use Adobe Illustrator.

[list]The page is just a giant image.
[*]It starts off using an allcaps font for body copy.
[*]You can't tell what the page is trying to tell you without scrolling down (and I use a 1080p display, it must make no sense at all to those using 1024x768).
[*]I count 9 different fonts used just on the first "page."
[*]Even more fonts further down.
[*]#0000ff gradients used everywhere.
[*]Hell, gradients everywhere.
[*]The background swaps randomly.
[*]Varying margins.
[/list]
I don't want to be redundant, so I'll stop there.
He includes a lot of random ass images and chunks of text that are completely irrelevant/do not contribute to the argument. And he's pretty abusive on the ellipses. It makes the author look uneducated.
It's going to be funny when your dad gets laughed out of the courtroom.
I didn't actually understand any of the article. It doesn't make sense!
The one in the middle is the only one that makes sense.
[QUOTE=Zeraux;19363886]Well that was a shit move.
But I doubt he'll be able to get anything from them, since they changed it. They can allways claimn that they had forgotten all about his version.[/QUOTE]
Bad spelling, but I shall grill your post for a different reason.
Even if they claimed they'd forgotten it, they wouldn't be able to prove that they hadn't seen it (I'm guessing there's evidence of this 'presentation'). This means that they would still be obligated to pay out - the court could rule that they forgot about it, but it stuck in their mind therefore they wouldn't have created that logo without his original design.
I might sue the OP, for the reason of making me look at that website has caused my eyes to shrivel up.

I love how your dad is seeking credit for somewhat similar artwork, and he try's to prove his point by ripping this image of Ovechkin straight off the NHL 2K10 cover and giving them no credit.

[QUOTE=Joannou1;19363489]well, now the amounts of money they have made from their/his logo is reaching into the hundreds of millions... He wants at [b][i]LEAST[/i][/b] a couple million... Also because of the fact that this has hurt us financially..[/QUOTE]
The logo alone made them earn hundreds of millions? Fuck off tbh.
Your dad's logos weren't nearly as good as the one they use, and it's not close enough to be called a copy.
I just changed 1million.txt to 1million.$
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD I'M RICH!
