One of our logos shows up in a Flash driven template generator

Over the years we’ve found tons of our material showing up on logo design websites that, to be charitable, we didn’t own. Knocked off work showing up in design contests, do-it-yourself tempate sites (above) and even large tracts of our verbiage, cut and pasted into other people’s websites for SEO rankings. Some of it pretty subtle. Some so blatant as to be hilarious. We’re never sure if these guys are using logos that they didn’t design to create a pretend logo design portfolio, or they’re examples of logos that they’ve passed off on unsuspecting clients. In either case, we grew tired of sending ‘cease & desist’ letters and e-mails, so decided to feature some of this stuff in a Copycats Gallery. May give you an idea with some of the nonsense we have to deal with at the shop. At the very least, it’s worth a few giggles. Just finished retooling so it this morning, so may be worth a looksee…
