This one had 900px. Really not ideal for printing it on products. I had to add superimposed text to my artworks.

Of course it is always better to protect your work as good as possible. Copyright registrations seem to be very helpful in the USA. Here in Germany it is not necessary: "The fundamentals of copyright law according to § 31 of the German Copyright Act (UrhG). The author is the creator of their work, which enjoys copyright protection in accordance with the UrhG, §§ 7, 1, 2 UrhG. Accordingly, all work resulting from a personal intellectual activity is copyright protected. The „principle of non-transferability“ of full or divided authorship according to § 29 I UrhG is valid. Therefore, the creator of an original work can neither transfer their personal right as a creator, nor the complete rights for the exploitation of their work to others."
