A quick look over these pictures suggests no *copyright* problems. They look like independent creations of some artist, not derived from the works of Duracell, Bic, or whoever first drew a yellow smiley face. There may be trademark problems. For example, Duracell may have a consider the orange-and-black battery to be trade dress; my understanding of trademark law is quite limited, but I don't think it applies to pictures of the trade dress in a different form. I wouldn't be horribly surprised if the names "hummer" or "rubik" are trademarks of the companies using them. I'm not sure what action to take based on that surmise, though. -Brian -- Brian Sniffen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
