Chrisgb 21 Posted March 23 I noticed today that the Ford trademark Blue Oval is missing from the masthead. Just a streamlining, or perhaps a trademark infringement issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
akirby 11,713 Posted March 23 I haven’t noticed a change, so not sure. I doubt there is any trademark issue as Robert is on good terms with Ford. 1 twintornados reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twintornados 2,327 Posted March 23 Since the last site re-design, the Blue Oval hasn't been up there... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ice-capades 1,971 Posted March 23 Perhaps a revised header including the Blue Oval that didn't take up as much vertical real estate would help and be more consistent. 1 Chrisgb reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmc523 3,166 Posted March 23 I was just coming to look and see if anyone had noticed this. The last several days I've had no Ford logo banner at the top. 1 valve reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More updates on this as we progress....... 5 ice-capades, Chrisgb, twintornados and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know that I, and probably the other moderators, would be interested in any information that you can disclose as to the nature of Ford's attempted action, objections, etc. BOF provides support to Ford customers and enthusiasts that isn't available elsewhere and some of the support is provided by Ford employees. 1 robertlane reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parts of Ford seem separated from other parts of Ford. BOF doesn't pose a trademark issue for Ford, so it will all work out over the next few weeks. Nothing to worry about here 2 twintornados and ice-capades reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
