I'm not so sure. I think "fair use" qualifies as activities that are:

1) Not commercial (i.e. private use)

or

2) Used satirically or in a new, distinct fashion

Making 5 shirts for some friends will likely be ignored. Making several hundred will get you a nasty letter from Lotus' attorneys. Making 5000 probably lands you in court.

You need to ask permission before you copy one or sell one, yeah...
