Very new to the entire t'shirt business, I have a question on what are the legalities of using images of athletes,artist and even certain properties(toys, action figures) on tshirts.
I would image there would be a licensing fee with most, correct or is some stuff allowed?
Since you are new the the t shirt biz you have time to change your business model. As mentioned, it can be dicey, just don't do it and you will be fine.
most, probably all the ones you are thinking of using, celebrities/athletes have a team looking for infringement
certain countries will not only fine/imprison for this type of theft, but take all your equipment as well
unless it is true parody (and you should have a lawyer review your work before selling)
