I'm afraid that, if a photo contains identifiable faces, one would need a permission to post from each person. I like Fabian's idea of using the same image as the one for the wiki. That image also has the "right height". Akemi ___ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs

This item is actually on my short list of things to clarify for the trademark guidelines and updates on the ArtWork page. For the moment, we can pursue a specific permission for GNOME Boxes. Can you provide a mock-up of how it would appear on the page? I'm looking at https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Boxes but am not sure how it would appear. Am I correct that the logo would appear when running the GNOME Boxes application inside of a GNOME session? If yes, is there also a corresponding use on the website? A mock-up from there would be useful as well. Knowing that this has been missed for a few months, I'll work through the discussions on our side to expedite a decision for you.

My understanding is that we can use all the CentOS marks provided here[0]. However, those unfortunately are not looking good enough on Boxes and we'd like to use, if possible, just the logo as in here[1] Would that be possible? As far as I could understand that would be a violation of the trademark.

Re: [CentOS-docs] [CentOS-devel] Authorization to use CentOS logo in GNOME Boxes
Thanks Rich for drawing this forward, I had missed it. (I generally handle all the trademark usage queries.) The key reference is this one, the trademark guidelines: https://www.centos.org/legal/trademarks/ That document should give the GNOME project all of the authorization and guidelines on how to use and not use the CentOS marks. Fabiano -- if you have any further questions, you may also direct them to centos...@centos.org . Rich -- it looks as if we need to update or clarify on the wiki around the appearance of the (R) in the marks. There is a link in a section there called "Usage Restrictions"[1] but it isn't terribly visible. I just added a new short paragraph at the top of the page referring to the guidelines.

Bumping this thread in the hopes that we can get an official opinion from someone on the board. In particular, the guidelines at https://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Brand/Logo seem to indicate that we're not supposed to use the logo without the wordmark, but we do that all the time, even on official swag.

Hmm. I matched the existing banner size identically as I assumed it was correct. There are in fact 4 banners now on random rotate.
