Avoiding infringement charges when using someone else's design elements without authorization is complex and risky. However, in some cases, there are some workarounds that can help reduce risk, although they don't completely eliminate legal liability. Here are some suggestions: 1. **Uniqueness**: Make significant changes to existing design elements to make them unique. For example, by changing the color, shape, proportion and layout, the design looks unique. 2. **Mix and merge**: Combine multiple design elements to create new combinations. This method can help you create a novel design, but you still need to be careful to ensure that you do not infringe on the core ideas of the original work. 3. **Inspiration**: Only take inspiration from the original design, rather than copying it directly. Rethink and create concepts to produce a completely new design. 4. **Public domain resources**: Use design elements that have entered the public domain, or choose works under open licenses (such as Creative Commons), which generally allow commercial use without copyright infringement. 5. **Originality**: Try to create a completely original design and avoid using any existing design elements. This is the safest way to avoid copyright and trademark risks. 6. **Quotes and tributes**: If you use certain elements of other people's works, consider adding appropriate tributes or explanations in your design, but this does not completely exempt you from legal liability. 7. **Legal consultation**: Before using other people's designs, consult legal experts and get professional advice to ensure that the design does not involve infringement. 8. **Research and documentation**: During the design process, keep detailed creation records and research documents to prove that your design is unique and not simply copied. Although taking these measures can reduce the risk of infringement, no method can provide 100% protection. The safest way is to obtain appropriate authorization before using other people's design elements.
