Default Re: Custom chips- art copyright issues?

Thanks for the replies- sounds like Disney/WB is out. I did email ChipCo about the possiblity/process of creating chips based on cartoon characters, but haven't heard back yet.

Sounds like I would actually need to receive written, authorized permission from Fox for chips with art even similar to characters from The Simpsons / Futarama / etc. If I hear differently from ChipCo, I'll post their reply.

Would this permission/licensing requirement even apply to likenesses of these characters I created or drew myself (i.e., if I did not use pre-existing scans/.GIF/.JPG images off the web, but created my own renditions)?
