Unless you use the Tat to sell your body you will not be braking the law.

Not sure if it does, but if it does, your skin belongs to Microsoft, boy!

Actually, there are quite a few people now with a Halo tattoo. I don't it will get you in trouble, but not quite sure if it breaks a rule.

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

In most cases, copyrights aren't infringed unless you start making money off through commercial stuff. Just don't start charging people to see it, and you'll be fine.

So shouldn't the tattooer have to pay copyright fees? He's making money off of it.

To the OP, you shouldn't have to worry about anything.

Why in the -blam!- would you want a Halo 3 tattoo?

You wont see anyone suing you for getting a Halo tatoo.

However, you will notice increased trouble in attracting women.

Maybe he already does.... Maybe the tattoo will be an improvement.

all i know is i'm getting a tat of master chief soon,
then shortly after bungie.net on my back in light blue.
i even bought stock from bungie, and i'm going to college for graphics design so i can work there.
somewhat off subject, but still on at the same time.
i hope it's not afflicting any copy right laws though,
because i plan on getting a tat as well.

The War will wage forever; though with it's fury comes a peace that you will never know here.

What you put on your body is, frankly, your business... ...and Microsoft can't own you if you have a Halo tattoo, since it violates your constitutional rights (think along the terms of the Emancipation Proclamation).

Dont think it would violate any laws. As long as you dont put a © on it... It may be good.
Also just dont sell your-self to someone. Then it wont be illegal. Lol

Hmm. From what I understand, the tattoo artist IS supposed to need permission, but really, once it's on your body, Microsoft isn't going to do anything about it.

Besides, you could argue that the tattoo artist was paid for their time and ink, NOT for the image itself.

I would get a tatoo of Halo 3 but I don't really like the whole concept of needles, ink, and it being permanent. But on topic, I think Microsoft and Bungie would only be flattered if you did so.

Would getting A tattoo of Halo Tattoo afflict the Copy Right?

I wasn't sure either, which is why I put mine on my left butt cheek. It only shows when I'm wearing thongs. YOU'LL NEVER CATCH ME BUNGIE!!!!!

Oof, I remember seeing that when it first cropped up a few months ago. GothicSlayer, wherever he is today, is indeed a very courageous man.

No, I don't think that it would violate the copyright. Unless, as some here have mentioned, you attempt to use it commercially by selling yourself or your skin, or attempting to charge people a quarter apiece to see it.

If that's the case, it'll always be on show. Bungie will catch you ... Again!

Oh, and to the OP: If you get a Halo tattoo, get a pink spartan, holding it's crotch. I've heard that's all the rage...

No, I don't think it will. As far as I know, you aren't making any money off getting the tattoo. Not sure about the artist who you pay for the tattoo, so you might want to check that. If Microsoft finds out your skin belongs to them, they won't go easy on you. "Test try this new Xbox lotion, please"

wow...uh...not that big...or uneven.

i've actually met a guy in person with it once. i honestly haven't seen one done that looks good. no offense to the person in that pic.

i was joking about me getting it though, i'm full of tattoos, but i doubt i would get something from a video game or a logo of any kind. not my style but to each their own.

p.s. if you happen to live in southern california, i can recommend a few good artists.
