yah.. spread the word
MSX logo that bazix licences appears to be FAKE!!!
chica.xs4all.nl/~rolex/msxlogo.png
(This logo is an exact copy of the one found on the BAZIX website. Only the red circle and text are added.)
The red mark indicates the place where you can see that the logo has been traced!
So legally you have to pay a licence fee for using this fake MSX logo.
But the ORIGINAL LOGO can be used for free.
I'm glad I can tell you that the legality of the MSX logo isn't determined by its form of appearance, let alone the composition of some pixels. The MSX logo that is licensed, is the logo in its most general form. That is, if it is recognizable as an MSX logo, it is subject to the policies MSX Association set out (and we represent). Even if it were a purple logo with green spots on it, it would still remain to be an officially by MSX Association owned trademark/logo In other words: the logo we offer on our website is not the one and only valid MSX logo, but just an image people who would like to use the MSX logo can use themselves (in the near future the MSX logo will probably be published in other (vector) formats). The logo that can be found on our site actually is nothing more or less than a 'service'. The rules apply to the very MSX logo in general.

You can't read, can you?
You don't have to pay a license fee for the MSX logo in the most common circumstances.
@ rolex, Do you have any connections with ROLEX tm, or do you pay some fee, for using that name? it's a trade mark, you know. lol.
I have a cat ^_^
/me is going to put the MSX logo and some disclaimer texts on his website... I bet it'll look cool ;p.
Funny thing by the way, that that MSX logo picture is 512x212 pixels in size.
