You could drive a truck through the kerning on %22DJR%22. And as logoboom said, find either a good lawyer or a good hiding place...

Thanks sdijock!!! *1.I will definitely try a better kerning on DJR. That s good idea. *2.All my profesors told me that if I will paint for customer a picture (in this case animal which seems very similar to PINK PANTHER - that was a joke partypartner with grey animal - as a nostalgy of these funny movie - so they told my that s all in right way because I used my own picture which I did in Illustrator. **Will be happy to write me more....***thaaanks...**

Because my customer told me that definetely would like to have %22something%22 as a pink panther in logo. Whoowh...difficult...order of customer I don t like it...so I paint by myself...**who can help:-) Is it wrong to have a part of logo similar to very knowledge brand (in this case pink panther) when everybody seems that s not fake (I did it for a party DJ who loves american music and symbols of USA) and use it as a part?**write me..that s interesting question**thanks a lot.*

Either enroll in a different design school or tell your professors to chip in for your legal fees because they're completely misguiding you.**The character you drew in Illustrator was purposely intended to mimic the Pink Panther, as you have freely admitted. However, even though you drew it yourself and made it gray doesn't mean that it isn't an infringement on the copyright of that character because it still looks just like the actual Pink Panther. If people see it and can mistake it for the actual Pink Panther character (which they will), then it can be considered a copyright violation. Your professors should have known this.**Look at it this way: It's equivalent to taking the Coca-Cola logo, tracing over it in Adobe Illustrator, then changing the color from red to green and telling everyone that it's actually NOT the Coca-Cola logo because you drew it and it's green - even though it still reads as %22Coca-Cola%22 in their font/logo style.

Hello sdijock,**thanks a lot for your writing me. It helped to me very much. I think it s a nice expierience. Thanks, thanks...**Even my dj for who is this logo he changed his mind and would like to have a differente design.**Because I translated your writing in czech. **Just only one thing.Even I changed Panther. Before this good a helpfull conversation I was thinking specially about Coca Cola...**If we will look at freefonts.com...and another million pages we will find typiccal %22design%22 of Coca Cola in fonts......and everywhere..people use this typical shapes....just write a different words and use cocacolalook....even that they don t try to sell a drinks......and don t like to disepointed people...**Sorry for my bad english...just try to explane thing that sometime some symbols, shapes...are later public....**Like in Australia...some lawyer try to patent a bike-because no one did it before...he should be veeeeery rich...bikes are in cars, clocks...**etc..**but thanks a lot. U are a perfect guider through logo life:-)**Jan
