IANAL, so would this a problem if this logo won?
Not necessarily. The Lenny222 entry is distinctly multicoloured unlike TechSmith's which might distinguish it. Trademarks may only apply to a particular industrial sector or geographical region. TechSmith is in computer software and seem to be world-wide so we probably fail on that one. In the UK they seem to have trademarked the word 'TECHSMITH' http://www.ipo.gov.uk/types/tm/t-os/t-find/t-find-number?detailsrequested=C&trademark=E2068609 I can't find their image trademarked maybe because the search on that site is confusing. I've tried Google but it's very difficult to find similar abstract images. I'm sure there must be some. If they haven't trademarked the image anywhere it would suggest either they aren't too attached to it or somebody else is using something so close that they can't trademark it. Maybe a search of the US trademark registry would be more productive. Richard.
