Hey all,

This has been discussed on IRC yesterday and today, but i'd like your opinion on this one.

I own www.shrekkie.com (its down for now) and I had used (stupid me, but heh) a logo and fonts in my header of the forum i had there.The logo was kindly taken from a moviecharacter , almost similar to my nick .

Yesterday i got a registered letter from the multinational owning that particular movie and character, with the announcement to reply on their demand to take down that logo and fonts. Also they *force* me to not use or drop that domainname.
So I did take it down to avoid legal consequences .... :s


The copyrighted logo and fonts i can imagine, but the domainname too ? Come on. IMO thats not fair. I did pay for that domainname, so they should refund that , no ?

Also I had a call of their lawyer, where she said I probably will need to hand over the domainname to that multinational. Can they do that , that simple ?

Anyway its ****ed,

Greetz,
