Description:

Search and include relevant results of the proposed design for any of the following:

1. Trademarks (or service marks)

2. Copyrights (or licenses)

3. Patents (or standards)

Program Outcome 7: (Ability to Learn)

1.1 (Tools) Students will be familiar with the use of standard search engines and keywords for an undirected search for information relevant to a specific project, familiar with the use of directed searches, starting from a known-good site and searching for information at that site relevant to a specific project and familiar with resources for compression/decompression of information.

Trademarks

Our website's name and logo would have to be trademarked

We originally wanted to use the name "GalleryGuild". When doing a search on uspto.gov, we found that "GalleryGuild" is not a trademarked name and neither is "GalleryGuild.net", but there are other websites out there called GalleryGuild. 

We pivoted to "RoamingCanvas", which, when doing a search on uspto.gov, we found no trademarks, no patents, and no copyright on both the Official Public Catalog or the Copyright Public Records System Pilot for "Roaming Canvas" or "RoamingCanvas".

Copyright

Our website's logo and site design would need to be copyrighted 

We don't have a logo or site design yet, but we would have to make sure not to infringe on any copyright when we do design it.

Patents

Our project does not need patents, since we won't be making any new algorithms or designs with our website
