Can Logos be use in other images? they will not be scaled or modified in anyway, only put on top a a picture like a cover etc.

This is a good point. Let's say, we want to have aPathfinder Qadira guild, could we cut the map and center around Qadira and then add some other images from the package overlapping it. Perhaps we could add our own desert to the picture too. In this way...could be create a banner for our website???

First of all, scaling them is fine, so long as you scale them proportionally—that is, don't shrink them more in one dimension than another.

You can place our images atop your own images, but you may not obscure parts of our images with your own images, or even with *our* own images—that would effectively be modifying them.


I find it quite strange that only few of these logos are vector format. For example, there's only a drop shadow that requires pixel graphic in Pathfinder roleplaying game's logo, but the entire logo is pixel graphic. I have a character sheet which I'm updating to use community use package and I hoped it to include vectorized version of PFRPG logo... I know this is a small matter, but the logo has suffered a lot from jpg packaging. Sorry about complaining when this is absolutely great to have this kind of community policy =).

aye jpeg is not the best, png supports transparency and the no detail is lost.

Yes, png would be better, but it ain't vector graphic. I would prefer eps, but pdf is fine as long as text is vectorized.

The PDF versions include vectorized graphics where possible, I'm told.

There are some, Planet stories and Pathfinder for example, but Pathfinder chronicles and Pathfinder rpg are pixel graphic. Pathfinder chronicles is understandable because it has effects that require pixel graphic, but Pathfinder rpg has only drop shadow. It's wouldn't be so big deal, but jpg packaging (also in pdf version) has really damaged the logo badly.

The art department says that no vectorized version of the full Pathfinder RPG logo exists yet, but they'll be making one for the finished cover shortly. We'll update the package at that time.

I second the request for PNGs instead of JPEG format. Alternatively TIFs if not PNGs.

Edit: That is to say vector in the PDFs and PNGs instead of JPEGs (which will help those who don't know how to do anything with a vector graphic on their website. :)

We have updated the file for Paizo Community Use Package: Logos.

The final version of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game logo has been added to the package. Please replace the old version with the new version wherever possible. (We are no longer distributing the older version.)

Also, dated logos (RPG Superstar 2009, PAIZOCON 2009) have been moved into a new "Historic Logos" folder. (You may continue using them; they're just not as useful as they once were.)

Paizo Employee (Technical Director)

We have updated the file for Paizo Community Use Package: Logos. It now contains the PaizoCon 2010 and RPG Superstar 2010 logos.

No.

Paizo Employee (Technical Director)

The package now consists of PNG files with transparent backgrounds, and (where possible) PDF files that contain scalable vector graphics.
