Can you trademark a color?

[timmytom1]

I call army green.

Now I own every army.

No you own every single armies uniform , but not the armies themselves, i can`t help but wonder as to how you`re going to collect all the uniforms

Now now, don't try to ***** with me. Or else I'll send Samuel L. Jackson. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czb4jn5y94g

I counter your Jackson with my Tarantino!

Tarantino, I choose you! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_vbvRbBtUI

Then I take Forrest Opall. ^_^

(Team fortress 2 sniper voice): Boom! headshot. Nobody takes my color.

If I can't have blue then I call dibs on camo

Yeh I own green AND brown, you hippies better pay up

 

[Nickflip]

I see this eventually turning into a debate on race...

 

[TenthRegeneration]

it doesnt matter
I own the universe
if a colour is a part of the visible light spectrum, it is part if the electromagnetic spectrum
therefore i own energy, and as matter is a form of energy, I own matter
muahahahaha
I own you all!!!!! <-more !'s than sanity dictates

 

[Voicuboyy]

dibs on yellow [i would make a very very racist comment but that would ban for me]

 

[7moreDead_v1legacy]

Thank god its the color brown not the colour brown phew...

 

[Spyalt]

Thats absurd. *sneaks off to trademark white*

 

[headshotcatcher]

Well, if you can, I call Blellow!, its a combination of blue and yellow!

Better known as green



Anyway, I call dibs on vacuums. Take that!

foiled again!
*throws deku nut and vanishes*

 

[Ghost]

now we'll all have to resort to pirating brown, with the huge prices UPS will be charging us to use their colour



also did i read that right, you bought a geiger counter?! WHY!?

 

[Biek]

Try coming up with a completely original color (not a shade of). Maybe you can trademark it.

 

[Plauged1]

I recently purchased a geiger counter off of ebay, and I noticed something in the fine print from UPS: "UPS, the UPS Shield trademark and the color brown are trademarks of United Parcel Service of America, Inc. All rights reserved."

Now, this may just be me having a 'blonde moment' (which would be strange, because my hair is brown, but I digress) but can you trademark a color?

And just to generate some more descussion: If you could trademark/copyright a color, which color, and why/why not?

Hahahaha! They own yor HAIR!

I don't think that its even legal. But, I would claim yellow, white and blue as my colors.

Take that, people who like those colors.=)

 

[KaiRai]

Does it say the color brown or "Brown"? Because Brown is somewhere in their little trademark thingy. Something like "What can Brown do for you?" or the like. So in that case I think they mean more the color in that specific case.

I would trademark teal though. Love that color.

NEIN!! I trademarked this years ago!

 

[Redingold]

I pick burnt umber.
