I am looking for logos like this that are high quality. All the ones I copy and paste off the internet look all grainy when I blow them up. Is there a program I can use to make them look better? I want to print JEEP Parking signs and stuff like that to sell.

Good luck, those logos are copy written.

What does that mean, that they are just going to grainy no matter what I do? Then where do other sticker shops get the artwork? Can I buy a CD of them?

You know they sell drugs on corners also, does that make it legal?

Some people have permission to use various logos, some do not and still reproduce them anyway.

I see home embroidery people selling Disney embroidery designs get busted, because they don't have permission from Disney to use those designs in for profit.

People at flea markets get busted for this type of stuff all the time around here too.

Oh my.

So you are wanting to use the brand identity, built by the prospective companies, to sell products you produce, without giving them a "piece of that pie".

To be legal, all of those stickers in the gas stations are printed/produced by companies who have permission from Jeep and such to produce those stickers, with their brand emblem on them. They in turn give Jeep and a such cut of those sales by one means or another.

Have I ever done a one off custom decal for a friend with a trademark? Not going to say here, but we don't produce a mass amount of pre-printed decals/signs with trademarked logos.

It can be more difficult then you might think, depending on who it is you are trying to get permission from.

However, your basic premise above assumes that those people are doing everything legally.

From Wikipedia:

A sticker is a type of a piece of paper or plastic, adhesive, sticky on one side, and usually with a design on the other. They can be used for decoration, depending on the situation. They can come in many different shapes, sizes and colours and are put on things such as lunchboxes, in children's rooms, on paper, lockers, notebooks and so on. Some people collect and trade stickers with other collectors. Temporary name tags are usually stickers.


Stickers are very widely used when an object requires identification with a word or idea. Brand stickers may be attached to products to label these products as coming from a certain company. They may also be used to describe characteristics of the products that would not be obvious from simple examination. A label dispenser is often used as a convenient way to separate the sticky label from its liner or backing tape.

They are frequently distributed as part of promotional, advertising, and political campaigns; for example, in many voting districts in the U.S., stickers indicating an individual has voted are given to each voter as they leave the polling place, largely as a reminder to others to vote. Observers may clap hands, honk a horn or otherwise applaud a good sticker.

Stickers placed on automobile bumpers, called bumper stickers, are often used by individuals as a way of demonstrating support for political or ideological causes. Identification of vehicle registration and last service details are two examples of stickers on the inside of most car windscreens. The term "window sticker" is generally used for vinyl labels which are stuck to the inside of a vehicle's window, as opposed to water-resistant stickers that are stuck to the outside of a vehicle but can be affixed to anything.

Stickers are also used for embellishing scrapbooking pages. Kinds of stickers sold for this purpose include acrylic, 3D, cardstock, epoxy, fabric, flocked, sparkly, paper, puffy, and vellum. While in the earlier days of scrapbooking stickers were sold mostly on 2"x6" sheets, now 6"x12" and even 12"x12" size sheets are very common.

Stickers applied to guitars are called guitar decals. Post-it notes are stickers having glue on only part of the back, and are usually sold blank.
