Is using someone elses texture in a design against copyright?

Ok, i designed a logo for a company and got a little lazy. I used about 20% of a grunge texture in the design through a mask. Im just curious if this is against copyright outright or should I make some changes to the design as to make it legal. The design itself is a radioactive symbol with the texture masked into the foreground logo. And no. I haven't submitted the logo itself yet.

All Answers To Questions

Answer 1

no - however, if you think your logo has a chance of becoming popular, why not change it up a bit, so people don't get confused, thinking it's advertising the other product?

Answer 2

Try to do your best to get an idea not an actual design, it is copyrighted.

Answer 3

Each and every logo should have a unique quality which you can identify from its color, shapes and images used in that design. So, it is against copyright.
