Do’s and Don’ts
Do these
Playing with the logo is a very important task. There are tons of rules that must be laid out before doing so since no one wants to mess the logo into something horrifying. Resizing proportionally, turning it into grey scale or using reverse set as seen previously is a go.
Don’t do these
Trying to do any of the examples onto the Camp Xpress logo is a no go, since the logo was made by Eriko Ronsayro and has expectations of what it will turn out in the end it was not created to become a mess.
