Usage Guidelines<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Blender\u00a0is a registered trademark (\u00ae)<\/a>\u00a0of the Blender Foundation in EU and USA. The Blender logo itself is\u00a0property of the Blender Foundation. The logo and the brand name \u201cBlender\u201d are not part of the GNU GPL<\/strong>, and can only be used commercially by the Blender Foundation on products, websites, and publications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Third parties may use the Blender logo, provided all of the following conditions are met:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. General Usage<\/strong>
    The logo can only be used to point to the product Blender<\/strong> or to give credit. When used with a link on a web page, it should point to the URL     blender.org<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Prominence<\/strong>
    You will visualize and promote your own branding more prominent than you use the Blender logo. The Blender logo only can be used as a secondary brand, which means it has to be clear for an average viewer that this is not an official Blender or Blender Foundation website, publication or product. Do not use the Blender logo as your own logo.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Products<\/strong>
    You can use the Blender logo on promotion products, such as T-shirts for events or trade show booths, provided it is a secondary brand as described in point 2.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Modification<\/strong>
    The logo is used unaltered, without fancy enhancements, in original colors, original typography, and always complete (logo + text blender).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Commercial use<\/strong>
    Only in exceptional cases permission will be granted to use the logo on commercial products, you must     contact us<\/a> with a picture of how it will be used, and ask for explicit permission. Showing the Blender logo on film credits<\/a> is not considered to be commmercial use.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    If you have further questions or doubts, do not hesitate to contact us<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n\n\n\n

    On artwork and community websites<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Blender’s logo has been used in hundreds of ways. This was — and still is — considered to be an honest tribute to Blender, and the guidelines are not meant to make these uses “illegal” or “officially disapproved”. This page is only meant to clarify the Blender Foundation guidelines so that people know their minimum rights and where they can use the logo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Modifying the Blender logo is really part of your own artistic freedom, and the Blender Foundation will never act against such tributes. Just don’t expect us to “officially approve” of it, that’s all.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Usage in Credits<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    You are welcome to credit Blender in your project!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Please follow the guidelines below however to avoid confusion about affiliation with the Blender team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
    \n
    \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/a>
    If you want to explicitly mention that your project was created using Blender – do not use the logo but type it out as shown above. Example:
    Spring Open Movie<\/em><\/a><\/mark><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \n
    \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/a>
    You can also just include the Blender logo in conjuction with others – please do not use the logo in isolation. Example:
    Sintel Open Movie<\/em><\/a><\/mark><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \n
    \n

    The Blender logo can be placed among other logos, for example when listing 3D software.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
