Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Certification and accreditation

Hi :)
Now that banner logos and strap-lines have been created and usage agreed it makes sense for newer 
courses to use the community banner/logo.  


So i think the newer course can start using this one straight away 

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/Branding#Logo_resources_for_community_members_and_external_use
as per the thread a couple of weeks ago  

http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/3rd-party-training-td4044794.html
Ian's course really needs to move to start using that logo too but obviously there are existing 
printed materials or materials that are ready for printing where changing the logo would incurr 
extra costs at this late stage.  I'm not sure what to do about those but my personal opinion would 
be to let those slip by "just this once" as long as we can see some effort to move to the community 
banner/logo.  

The community banner/logo is the one that does have the name "LibreOffice but does NOT have the 
strap-line "The Document Foundation" under it.  So it kinda looks better because the name of the 
program is larger so it works better at a wider range of sizes.  


Getting permission to include the extra strap-line should be far less easy because that logo/banner 
should not be used so widely and should begin to mean something more.  I've used the community 
banner/logo at work and it's quite effective.  The extra strap-line would have just confused 
people.  Errr, i also used the apps/modules icons to add a bit of colour.  


I think that is how it works?

Tom :)
