[E-trademarks] TSDR Isn't Functioning // Trademark Search Isn't Displaying Images

[Ken Boone]

Trademark Search has been updated.  The search UD:20250214 now returns 40,979 trademarks, plus the display of drawings now appears back to normal.

Also, TSDR appears to be back to normal, for now, at least for my current search session.

Now, please explain something for me.

[previously viewed                          Image for 98930468, select for more details]

For 98930468, the description of mark has MODERN LẨU THÁI TÔM,
but the wordmark has MODERN L?U THÁI TÔM
so why doesn't the wordmark match the text for the description of mark?  How can initial USPTO processing preserve the description of mark (and disclaimer and translation) but corrupt the wordmark?  (Rhetorical - no reply expected.)

From TSDR:

Mark Literal Elements:
MODERN L?U THÁI TÔM
Standard Character Claim:
No
Mark Drawing Type:
0 - UNKNOWN MARK DRAWING TYPE
Description of Mark:
The mark consists of MODERN LẨU THÁI TÔM in a stylized form.
Color Drawing:
Yes
Color(s) Claimed:
The color(s) red, black and white is/are claimed as a feature of the mark.
Disclaimer:
LẨU THÁI TÔM
Translation:
The English translation of "LẨU THÁI TÔM" in the mark is "Thai Shrimp Hotpot".

Yes, the headache of checking the newly added wordmarks for special form drawings (which had NOT appeared on TM Search beginning 6 December until yesterday) continues.  And Copilot keeps changing my emails as I'm composing.  If there's a black box at the top of this email, that's from Copilot (as far as I can tell) and I cannot find a way to delete it.  So it goes.

It's déjà vu all over again!  If your Trademark Search results look familiar (i.e., just like yesterday's results), consider that the search UD:20250214 returns 0 trademarks.  In words, the overnight update to Trademark Search failed to update any trademark records, or everything on Trademark Search is the same as yesterday. Well, except that today Trademark Search is still struggling to display drawings for most of my searches.

Happy ❤ VD!

FYI - Significant problems with both TSDR and Trademark Search this morning.  See my alert to the USPTO below.  I did freshly boot my laptop this morning, but I'll be rebooting to see if performance improves.  Happy ❤ VD!

TSDR mostly just stalls.  When it does respond, the page is typically void of data.

Trademark Search isn't displaying drawings, presumably due to image server issues that are also impacting TSDR.

Hope these problems are resolved quickly,
