It is copyrighted, and if you are using it for a class I'm sure they will have a problem with it.

Your school may be different, but at my university any project that is to be turned in cannot have any copyrighted material at all. So I would ask your teach/prof?

THE CORRECT ANSWER IS:


If you make me one, it is not illegal. just don't sell any

Would it be considered "copyrighted" if i TYPED the words in a different font and add a heart? I dont see how that can be copyrighted.

If not I was considering making a few and giving to friends. But if it is copyrighted then i guess not. Also, its not so much of a "project," its a free project. I can basically make anything. Anything with a simple design and two colors.

Any of you guys have a cool design that you want made to a shirt?
