    Copyright question using brand product images

    What we need, is a bunch of "role play brand names" free for anybody to use. That could be a great community project where everybody are invited to contribute their ideas for names, logos and/or labels. There must be a few out there already (didn't Linda Kellie make a few?), the trick is to find them.

     

    That shouldn't be a problem. Just combine your custom labels into the same kind of textures you were planning to use. One way to do it would be to build your product shelves from mesh and prim on the beta grid and take snaphots of them to use on the main grid.

    I have made some cigarette brands that I would share from a previous project. As for taking photos of the things I am creating lol, I am doing just that!

    I do live in the United States. I also called Oreo company to ask them just to find out what they would say. They told me I'd have to write to the company informing them of my intent of use having the brand logo image in my project and get permission from them to use the photo. This is all becoming too much of a headache. I have decided not to use the photos I took and go the long hard route of sitting here spending hours creating my own food brands and labels to throw on a million cans and boxes to fill a grocery store... which also adds to the prim count which is what I was trying to avoid in the first place by using photos. Even with mesh, its still going to be much higher prim than I wanted it to be. But anyway, I thank you all for your replies and links to various areas. I have looked at and read them all (very confusing stuff) and decided this is probably the best route to avoid further headache and confusion.

    I don't usually run across this issue because its not something I've really had to deal with before. I am building a grocery store in SL, and I went to my Real life grocery store and took a bunch of photos of products on the shelves to use as images on the shelves to reduce prims of having a bunch of prim items.... anyway, some of these products are name brand products... oreo, Jiffy peanut butter, Orville popcorn just to name a few that are shown in these images. By using these images am I am breaking any copyright infringements? Do I need to go through and change the names of everything? Or is there a work around that would allow me to use these images and not get in trouble for it? Thanks in advance for responses and helping me out in this... 

     

    Help with Ferris Wheel

    in LSL Scripting

    Posted

    I have very little scripting knowledge at all. I can make this ferris wheel go around with no problem, but I can't make it so my seats stay the right direction as the ferris wheel moves. I would love to get this working and soon! I'm willing to pay for help getting this scripted... and when I say help, I mean, you do the work and I'll piece it together with my final project! I would need the scripts to be at least copy/trans. If you are willing to help me please contact me in world with an estimate of what you would charge me to do this project! Keep in mind this is for a family friendly sim that is non profit! We do this just for the love of SL families!
