I have resently run across another digital artist who has been calling his company the same name as mine since the beginning of this year. Its been in my name since 2001.
Normally, I wouldn't care about this sort of thing at all......but alot of people are getting confused between my work and his. What is the best way to let him know that the name is allready taken? What if he doent want to change? What should I do?

*confused*

Take it up with him. Bring proof of names, dates, etc. If the person does not stop, and doesn't change their name. Then I would suggest getting legal advise (which can be free if you call a lawyer on the phone).

Yeah, head down to the trademark office and do it immediately. You have much more chance then.
