question My domain is now trademarked by somebody else....

[GreenGambler]

Hello,

I am a part-time painter/artist. I've had my domain name for 8 years now and have always used it for either my artwork website or to forward to my artist Facebook page.

About 2 years ago an import company registered my domain name as their trademark. They now sell branded art supplies on Amazon, eBay, Walmart, using my domain name as their brand.

I never filed for a trademark but I have always used the domain name, never had it parked and it's always been related to my artwork.

I'm just wondering if this companies brand continues to grow, is there a chance they can force me to give them my domain name?

Thanks for your help,
Rich

I'm just going to keep using it and doing what I'm doing for now. Thanks to everyone for the replies and help.
