I woodburned this about a year ago, posted it to Reddit/r/wot but figured some of you might appreciate it as well.

Not to be a nit-picking bureaucrat, um, err, well perhaps I will take on that role: are those images copyrighted and thus reproducing them on something without the relevant licensing a naughty thing to do? (Or maybe that will only really be an issue if the item were to be bought/sold.) :(

I think you can use the chapter ornaments so long as it's not something you're selling. I saw a reference somewhere, but this is the only one I found on short notice, and it's old. http://wotfaq.dragonmount.com/node/7

I actually looked into this when I did my website. The Wheel of Time chapter icons can be used on the web or in printed publications, even if you're making a profit. (If they are Wheel of Time related projects) They can't be used on consumer goods commercially.

Personal projects are A-okay!

Leave it to you nerds to disparage this man's work worrying about some bull. Can't you enjoy something? Ever?

Copyright and trademarks protect commercial goods,I.e. you cannot profit off works or symbols that are protected by a copyright or a trademark. This doesn't fall under either. In fact, I don't think he could even be liable because there isn't federal jurisdiction over it unless it's sold through interstate commerce.

Tha being said, it looks great!! Good job!
