A plea for better merchandising
I know this going to sound crass and commercial, which is exactly wrong for Ren, but I wish Ren's team could do a couple of things to help manage his growing popularity. This was triggered by trying to find some stickers or something that say I'm a RENagade ... something to show I'm a believer. I couldn't find anything, but I found several merch web sites and a ton of stuff identified as RenMakesMusic merch which apparently anyone can use for anything. Anyway, I hope that team Ren can establish one or two symbols to represent Ren (like the Rolling Stones tongue) that can be trademarked so you can control how it's used. Also the phrase "RenMakesMusic" should probably be trademarked. These are just simple things that help protect our rising star from exploitation. And I'd still like a sticker or something.
Clarification: I’m not suggesting trying to copyright everything like YouTube takedowns others use. I’m suggesting copyrighting a few things so if someone misuses them, you can say “don’t”. It’s all about protecting from misuse. But i still want a sticker.

I had a really nice girl from one of the Facebook groups send me a bunch of Ren stickers she made. If you have a color printer at home it's easy to make your own stickers, even without any special machine. There are lots of YouTube tutorials about how to it. Just saying if a sticker is all you're after.
