IF the EPS file was based on a scanned recycle logo from some copyrighted source... What portion is really the copyright of the submittor? I know that merely transfering a copyrighted item to another medium does not free it from the prior copyright. 2) IF the original recycle logo is a trademark and has been placed into the public domain, can the submittor claim any portion of the copyright? -- Russell Dickerson Internet: dickerson@vf.jsc.nasa.gov Lockheed (LESC), A22 =================================== SSE System Project X Windows & Motif on Apollo/PC/Mac Space Station Freedom Phone +1 713 283 5193
