Re: [Gimp-developer] Wilber Logo



Like I said, I'm not a lawyer. I don't own any rights to the GIMP logo. I
would not be the one to ask. I'd recommend making the graphic and then
asking for permission so the devs can see it. Note that they are away this
week at a hackfest and may be slow to respond.

Hope it helps. :)

Thank you for your permission to use that logo you made!

So just to be crystal clear, I do not need any special legal documentation
approving me to modify and commercialize the GIMP logo Wilbur? Other than
this email I suppose?

It seems to be missing from the official GIMP Wilber downloads page,
but a few years ago I made Wilbur in Inkscape, and gave it to the
project.
It's probably lost in a git archive somewhere. :)

I've included a temporary link to it if the project wants to put it up
for folks to use (no attribution is necessary). Included is an archive
with the vector (editable in Inkscape) as well as a high-res png
export. It's cc0, as are all the graphics I make for the projects. :)
Use and mod as you like:

That said, I am not a lawyer, nor do I own claim ownership rights to
the original Wilber logo, and with cc0 I waive my rights to this work
as well. :)
For my part, I'm happy knowing more people will be wearing GIMP tees
and spreading awareness of the project.

Riley - You might think about donating a portion of your profits to
the GIMP project - It's actually a pretty big selling point for a lot
of GIMP users, knowing a portion will go to supporting the project.
Also, you might get your company name on this really bad page:
https://www.gimp.org/about/merchandise.html

I know right? Almost too good to be true! :D

Hello,

I would like to design t-shirts with the Wilber logo and commercially
sell
those shirts online. I have not made the designs yet because I wanted to
make sure that I have the right permission and legal ability to do so.

The design will have nothing other than a modified version of the Wilber
logo, and perhaps the text "GIMP".

Let me know how to proceed,
Thank you in advance!
