The AP covered this story in December, but I'm generally a little slow on the uptake. Forgive me. But, I did think this was an interesting story on copyright infringement. Love Fatigues, a seemingly mom and pop establishment known for their kama sutra inspired camoflage t-shirts, created their own t-shirt for the Obama campaign. Needless to say, the design seems a little bit more of a copy of Bambu's artwork, than a design "inspired by" Bambu's artwork. And considering Bambu's look is copyrighted, I'm guessing they're going to win this one should it end up in court.
