If you saw these logos on an embroidery site, they may have been examples of what the digitizer had worked on, kind of an advertisement, saying "look, I'm a good enough digitizer that I'm employed to do work for these important companies." If, as I have a sneaky suspicion, you saw these on a Chinese site given away for free, that would be illegal. I'm just not sure people understand in foreign countries (benefit of the doubt here) that you can't give copyrighted material out as samples of your work. Duck Head may have paid them to digitized and sew out the designs, but that logo belongs to Duck Head, not the digitizer! They could show a photo of it as a sew out, showing the quality of their digitizing and embroidery, and that they work for important companies, but to give it as a sample design is just not legal. I see a lot of this with the Chinese sites. And you can obviously see where USA dollars are going, and it's not to USA digitisers. Grrr. Don't get me on "that" soapbox! Hugs, Marji
33451I agree with Marj I think it would be a NO NO to use them without permission. *4u
27608I'm going to guess they're NOT allowed to be embroidered. These are logos the company would put on their product or advertising merchandise (like a John Deere cap). They would want to be the ones to give away or sell these items, I doubt you could find any legal logos. You could always use any tractor design and do it in the John Deere colors. I think you could probably get into a lot of trouble with these if you used them, because not only would you not be authorized to use them, but you'd be implying that what they were on was a Duck Head,etc. product, and that would be fraud. I'd not mess with these, if I were you. Hugs, Marji
