so..
if i want to get a picture off google images for example.. and like use it as a logo or something on roblox.com
>i will not be profiting irl money off of said logo
it doesn't have a 'c' or any signs of copyright or date,
but it does have the owners deviantart..
so if i removed the deviantart off the logo, is it illegal to use it
(its the logo of some old MW2 quickscope clan that has been dead for years and only ever had 2 members doubt owners would care tbh)

No it isn't illegal.
You have to make money directly from using it OR use it in a commercial setting.
So like playing a copyrighted movie that you burned to your CD at your restaurant. |

okay and just for future reference, even if it WAS copyrighted..
if i colored the deviantart, and the copyright symbol out, but didn't advertise it as my own, or make money off of it, it's still legal

it depends. you have to ask the owner first before reuse of any kind. it can be copyrighted without the logo, you know.

^ he can't be jailed, he can be sued if it is, or roblox will remove the group.

| I doubt the owners of the clan will care but you could try contacting them if you want to be extra careful |

if you add something onto it, it wouldn't be the same thing, that's what people do on youtube vid's when they're uploading videos of say, some anime or something, or some tv show, they add a different back ground so it isn't copy righted.
it's really bad though, i mean it's just using a loophole in a legal system, so, not illegal, but morally wrong.
