Re: UC Logo wallpaper

Bill, you are right. The organization in the College Licensing Commission  in 
Atlanta. I had to deal with them when I was setting up my site. I had to  
create my own logo and wasn't allowed to use Bearcat in my name.  Interesting now 
that there are so many other sites that use Bearcat in their  name. And no I 
don't want any cheese with my whine, sorry.

That is certainly wrong. If it is copyrighted, they can come  after
you. Years ago (Global Bearcat days) I posted a C-Paw on an  AOL
sharing area. I eventually got tracked down by lawyers from  the
University (or a Marketing company hired by the University).  They
didn't sue me or anything, but they required me to get it taken  down,
which wasn't easy.
