    A trademark shows the source of goods, not the actual goods
    themselves. It is a completely different type of intellectual
    property than copyright. Trademark infringement involves passing off
    copies as the real thing: for example, fake Gucci purses that are
    labeled and look exactly like real Gucci purses. Merely copying
    someone else's work but labeling it as your own is not trademark
    infringement. Also, merely copying someone else's work is not
    necessarily copyright infringement unless that copied work meets the
    legal requirements necessary for a copyright, as have been
    identified previously on this forum.
