    Why? There's no copyright on the word "Vedder" as a stand alone, and there's nothing wrong with the Jam Van. (Unless they've trademarked the entire alphabet, and Vans) This is Fan Art that actually conforms to intentionally NOT breaking copyright laws, unlike 99% of the other stuff that on various other sites. (Yes Pearl is spray painted on the van, that's the vans name, and Jam is highlighted, but they're not together.) If folks can use Mickey mouse holding a microphone with Pearl Jam under it and sell that online and has been for the last 4 years, I should be okay since I conscientiously made sure that there was no infringement.

    You're advertising it on the band's message board so you've made the connection. They typically instruct their lawyers to send out cease & desists for these type of items for sale. While they can't police the entire interweb, your identity is no longer a mystery, right?

    A bands message board that has an Art Hub and trading post for Fan Art, of course there's a connection.

    Keyword being "trading", not providing links to stickers for sale. I imagine you understand the difference as well since I see you edited the OP to remove the links. Don't misunderstand, not trying to preach, but you might want to kill the links altogether and pull the items for sale.
