Andy, Robert, Stella and All,
It follows below Novell/SUSE Legal Dept response about using Mickey Mouse head within an oSSum13 logo.

Kellie forwarded this message to me for review since I manage the trademark programs for all four (4) business units.
That said, while the attached logo is very creative, I do not recommend using the Mickey Mouse head or any Disney image. We have dealt with The Walt Disney Company in the past and it is very difficult to receive permission to use their images. And, if permission is granted, they usually require a large licensing fee. The Walt Disney Company is very protective of their intellectual property and are known for policing their trademarks, logos, and images very carefully.
However, if you really want to use the Mickey Mouse head in the attached manner, I would suggest trying to obtain permission from The Walt Disney Company ahead of time.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need further assistance.
Thanks, Sue "
I sent an email to nidia.caceros@disney.com (Disney Consumer Products) and tips@disneyantipiracy.com requesting for a permission to use it but honestly, I don't think they will allow us to use without paying a fee. That's bad since I really liked that idea... :(
With that said, Andy, please can you create a new oSSum13 to add in the ticket description?
Then, after replacing the Disney logo with yours, I'll ask Stella to make the tickets available in OSEM.
Regards,
-Gilson

What about the attached logo? I'll let Andy work on it since he is the specialist but it's fun messing around with gimp.
Thanks all.

Specifically to put Mickey Mouse ears on Geeko. I assume that would be OK from a copyright point of view.

Andy, what you think?

Hey guys, I see that the suggested image is catching on some fire and I would go for that all in only after Disney is notified of this derivative work. As Peter says Disney is known for being "ferocious" about their trademarks and logos and you cannot use them lightly. If there is written consent from Disney's marketing then I could work on it and get it ready for the webshop.
Ok guys, here is our conference logo in B&W at 100x100 px. https://www.dropbox.com/s/9k989en314ino4k/BWBadge_100x100.svg -- Andy (anditosan) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-summit+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-summit+owner@opensuse.org
