Copy Cats

So, I am a proud alumni and graduate student at K-State. While walking through Target today, we happened upon some golf clubs. Hmm, I didn't know K-State made golf clubs?! Oh, wait they don't, it's Cougar. They just stole the powercat.

Check out the Thundercats logo...

looks like they hit it with the liquify filter in Photoshop.

I was lucky enough to take a class with the man who designed the Powercat when *he* was in school, Thomas Bookwalter. He teaches illustration in the art dept. Got like $200 and an A for the project. Had he been smart about it, he could still be getting royalties on it to this day!

I've totally been thinking that myself for a long time. It looks so uncanny. Plus, some of their clubs have the logo in PURPLE. So, you can imagine how confused I was the first time I came across those clubs.

Hmm. I wonder why that is okay, the apparent copyright infringment...?

I bet the very slight differences make it ok since it is not exactly the same.
