Travel back with me now, back through the mists of time to December 2015, and my first creations on Zazzle. Unfortunately, my early enthusiasm was met with a slapped wrist, as my owl design (above) was pulled for trading on the name of a certain celebrity. I thought I'd changed things enough to be safe; the celebrity was, after all, human and not an owl.
The original design also included a pun on a famous song title, and search terms referring to the celebrity in question. Rather than guess where the exact infringement was, I replaced all references to specific rock and roll stars with generic terms, and hopefully I'm now legit. New designers beware!
