Just wanted to warn ya Sage

Idk if Sage has allowed this or not but just want to make you aware of a website using your logo at their own discretion. Came across it when I was looking for a Federated Auto Parts log and remembered you had made one.

Interesting.They couldn't even bother to use it without the background. That tells me they just snagged the preview image and not the logo. Bunch of dummy hacks.
But you'll probably want to point this out to Robert since it's his site.
I'm just one of the unpaid grunts :)
I see they have a 'Contact' link. This could be fun.

edit: Oooo. I see they work on 'Musle' cars and do 'Resterations'. That's the type of folks I want to trust my vehicle to.

I went outside once. The graphics weren't all that great.
I suffer from CDO. It's like OCD, but in alphabetical order, LIKE IT SHOULD BE!
If you can't spill it, it ain't 'paint'!

They wanted the best. Do you blame them?

We don't own the trademark for that logo, only the Racin Grafix part in the background. hrmmm...

Yeah I thought it quite interesting that they would just use your logo with background and all when there's hundreds of Federated Auto Parts logo examples.

Robert may have to throw his 'musle' around, huh?  :)

when you google image search federated auto parts, we're the first one that comes up with a black background. Their site is black as well. That's why they used it. Just haven't had time to deal with it. I'm so booked up with work and kids, I haven't had time.
