Does anyone have a photoshopped picture of a wolf silhouette? Something that could be used as a wolfpack themed logo? 4/10/2008 11:13:45 AM |

I was thinking more of one of the schools logos turned in to a silhouette.
Would rather have something thats already been approved by the University.

something like this in a silhouette (or grayscale)... if the University has produced anything of the sort. Otherwise Ill just use one I already had from google image search.

careful
you might catch a lawsuit if it's too similar to any NCSU trademark. 4/10/2008 11:21:47 AM |

^ why I was already looking for something the university has used and published.
Photochop it yourself and you could be smacked with a lawsuit.
Take something they produced and follow the usage guidelines and youll be okay.

im just saying
if you take NCSU's logo, or anything similar, and start using it while you're making money (as a logo for a business) then there's gonna be an issue.
it's basic trademark shit, man. 4/10/2008 11:24:50 AM |

I wouldn't spend time on your wiki. It won't succeed.
Wikipedia is all you need. 4/10/2008 11:31:38 AM |

While wikipedia is a success, there is a lot of room for themed wikis to grow 4/10/2008 11:45:33 AM |

If the wiki isn't for an officially sponsored student organization or related group, you'll catch grief for using university trademarks. 4/10/2008 12:17:09 PM |

Still not illegal though.
And Im sure it will be acceptable to use for a wiki aimed at the wolfpack community, and everything NCSU-related. 4/10/2008 1:06:08 PM |

yes, it is indeed illegal to use the university's logo on something that was not previously authorized.
and no, it would not be acceptable to use the logo on your website.

notice that little disclaimer at the bottom of tww? and how the ncsu logo isn't anywhere on the site?
