That is what I am attempting to do plant the flag in the event it needs to be defended. The image has been used several times with out permission. The incidents ended ok but just looking into the future and we need to establish ownership.
Some years ago I owned a barbershop in the name was the word haircuttery, I received a letter from The Haircuttery that they owned the rights to the words as it was copyrighted.
Thanks all for the input.
