Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo Buttons
Arnulf, Thanks for the clarification on the logos. I was hoping to prompt this topic thread with my posting. Also useful would be some guidelines on how and where OSGeo logos can be used on other web pages, particularly in light of the self selection/opt in membership approach. Are all members (i.e. anyone who registers on osgeo.org) allowed to use the OSGeo logo on their project/personal/corporate web pages to help identify their interest in OSGeo? Should the logo be linked to a particular page on osgeo.org? Should the original logo be used or some modification of it?

Current OSGeo policy does not differentiate outside recognition of members and charter members so that we do not have a need for separate logos. Charter members are only required internally for votes into the board of directors. It has been discussed that the OSGeo logo should be available with an additional tag line Sponsor.

We should discuss them at the next meeting. Best regards, Arnulf.

Dan- In general, yes, you are allowed to use the logo. There are guidelines posted on the web (not sure where..) spelling out proper usage, etc. -mpg From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Daniel Ames Sent: Monday, March 03, 2008 10:10 AM To: OSGeo Discussions Subject: Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo Buttons Arnulf, Thanks for the clarification on the logos.

RE: [OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo Buttons
http://www.osgeo.org/logos See Branding Guide, and also Trademark Guidelines. I do like the idea of branded logos for members, sponsors, and supporters though. I would prefer to see the white background be given precedence on these though; the black (inverted) image should only be used where absolutely required. Jason From: Michael P.

Tyler, Yes, that's exactly what I've been thinking about.
