Logo usage

Post by Guest » 30 October 08 7:48 am

Ummm I've been unable to find anything regarding copyrights or similar for using GCA marks etc, so I thought it would be polite to ask first before doing anything.

I'm currently making a blackberry app, one of the main reasons for doing so was in promoting this site etc so I wanted to point people at this site and show the logo in the about window, would this be ok?

As long as you don't make money from it, you can use it.

I searched the forums/wiki/google/etc for logo usage and mostly got non-relevent stuff back, thanks for that, planning to GPL the code so it's not for commercial purposes.

I definitely would not be making money from this.... can I use it in as the main image in an intro for my videos on YouTube?

Non commercial use doesn't require permission from anyone here.

While I'm here I might as well ask for possible future use...

If one was to design t-shirts or other like merch to raise money for future web server fees, a large percentage still to go to the seller, is there any chance they could use the logo with paperwork to sign or something? Or is it a definite NO, no matter what the use if money is involved?

You can't make money from the logo.
