https://www.daz3d.com/road-trip-hippy-van I just learned that Volkswagen copyrighted the SHAPE of their retro van which is an issue for those selling commercial images. FYI

    Maybe post this in https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/608786/a-thread-for-items-with-the-editorial-license#latest thread, even if it doesn't (yet) have the Editorial License.

    I believe there is a ticket option to report copyright issues.

    It's my understanding VW obtained the copyright in 2021. Just frustrating for those who sell commercial. All images I made with this product were removed from my portfolio.

    In any event, please bear in mind that no one here is qualified to act as a legal adviser on this matter to the forums (we may have some lawyers specialising tin this field, but they do not have client/attorney relationship with us) so please avoid legal advice. Reporting the claim is fine, but if people cannot decide on their own how it applies to them they should seek legal advice.

    I would hardly think that a little woolgathering speculation on which Type 2 designs fell under the trademark approval case could have been construed as offering legal advice in any way, Richard, but whatever.
