kbdfr,
Yeah, I understand what you mean now and I also know about the trademarks.
First of all , it is really uncomfortable that I was treated as a senseless and thoughtless of intellectual property.

But I'm not the person who makes money using others' intellectual property at all.
I've been making enough money from my own job over the last ten years as a software developer.
And I've never sold out anything here in DT and also used it for commercial purposes.

I just love keyboard stuffs and making my own custom things.
Just wanted to share that is possible to get some special things like the stickers for not commercial purposes(yeah, I know the personal use of the Cherry logo is not right behavior).

From the same standpoints as you mentioned, however, nobody should make any keycaps with the similar or same design of Cherry keyboards here.

I do understand a group buy to be a non-profit exercise. Here I see stickers for sale, i.e. for profit. I don't know if the seller is a "commercial shop", but in my eyes this is a business endeavour.

Until then, nothing to see here, please move along.

Please specify whether this is just how you express a diverging opinion or whether it is to be understood as a mod's behest.
In the latter case, I'll reverently abide, shaking my head.

No need for a new thread.

I didn't mean you in particular (I had understand somebody else sells them anyway), just wanted to raise awareness to the issue.

I promise there will be no Group Buy for the stickers. Never!
I don't need to make money with it at all and also that's really hard to do GB.

So please understand to use it personally for my custom keyboards.

kbdfr,
Got it.

And I also agree with your opinion about the intellectual property and that's important thing what all we should keep in mind for seeking the happiness through keyboard stuffs.

I do not recall having expressed anything negative (or, as it is, anything at all) about the keycaps which are the actual topic of this thread.

Some pretty nice looking keyboards! (prefer the green)

About the stickers, just because someone is selling something doesn't mean it's for profit, if the stickers cost 10usd a sheet to make, and he's selling at 10usd, no profit...

I would say this has to be true for the arguments of both sides.
