&TCBRAND; is the main visual manifestaion of &TC;;. &TC;;
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
uses &TCBRAND; to connect all the visual manifestions it is
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
made of (e.g., GNU/Linux Distributions, Web sites, Stationery,
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
etc.) and, this way, provides recognition

among similar projects available on the Internet. The CentOS
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
Brand is made of a graphical component (&TCSYMBOL;) and a
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
typographical component (&TCTYPE;) that, when put together,
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
make &TCLOGO;. The components that make &TCBRAND; can be used
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
together or separately, considering that, in hierarchy order,
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
&TCLOGO; is rather prefered than &TCSYMBOL;, as well as
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
&TCSYMBOL; is rather prefered than &TCTYPE;.

In addition to those components mentioned above, &TCBRAND;
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
includes another component named &TCMOTIF;. &TCMOTIF; is
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
mainly used as background on images and is directly related to
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
the look and feel of all visual manifestations &TC;; shows its
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
existence on. In contrast with &TCLOGO;, &TCSYMBOL; and
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
&TCTYPE;; &TCMOTIF; might change from time to time providing a
|
|
|
bc9d74 |
vehicle to <quote>refresh</quote> how &TC;; looks and feels.

&TCBRAND; and all the visual manifestations derivated from it

a good citizen's will inside &TC;;, but you are not allowed to
