Logo Templet Mockup

[gwpriester]

Gary, I have totally missed something here. Rik & Jeff mocked up a XAR file of the MS Edge logo. Am I correctly? Jeff then offered up a template XAR file of the double spirals of Post#1. Did this also contain the MS Edge logo design?

Yes. Or enough of it to get in trouble if Microsoft's lawyers got wind of it. I think this is highly unlikely. But it is my decision as a moderator to err on the side of caution. You are more than welcome to bring up the matter with Barbara B if you disagree.

Thank you Gary, I understand your position better.

Luckily, Microsoft (MS) have not updated their MS Edge Usage Guidelines (https://query.prod.cms.rt.microsoft....binary/RE1q9FT) to reflect the new logo. The creation of a vector version does not fall outside of allowed use.
It all hinges on the concept of "copy" but more on the intention of the copy. MS do suggest seeking its permission.

By morphing old into new, MS has broken its own guidelines: "alter, animate, or distort the trademarks or combine them with any other symbols". [https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/lega.../general.aspx]

I am amazed I am allowed to switch on my machine.
