Ask for logos

Ask sponsors for a one-color SVG on a transparent background. Ovante paints it in your page's colors so every logo on the wall matches. PNG and JPG work too.

On this page

The best file to ask a sponsor for is a one-color SVG with a transparent background. Ovante paints a logo like that in your event page's text color, and in your accent color when a guest points at it, so a wall of logos from twenty companies reads as one design.

What to ask for

FileHow it shows on your page
One-color SVG, transparent backgroundPainted in your page's colors. The best result.
PNG with a transparent backgroundAlso painted in your page's colors.
PNG on white, or any JPGShown as uploaded, with its own colors and background.
PDFCan't go on the page. Ask for one of the above.

A message to sponsors might read: "Please send your logo as a one-color SVG with a transparent background. A PNG or JPG works if that's all you have."

Where sponsors send it

From their order page, under Upload your logo, when their sponsorship level includes a logo. Ovante emails them reminders before your Sponsor logos deadline. You can also upload a file for them from their drawer on Sponsors.

Why one color

  • A full-color logo on a dark Showcase page can disappear, and a white box around a JPG looks pasted on.
  • A one-color logo has no colors of its own, so Ovante can draw it in yours, and it stays readable on any palette.
  • A logo with its own background is shown as it is, which keeps it readable, though it won't match the rest.

When a logo appears

All of these have to be true:

  • You approved it on Sponsors.
  • The sponsor isn't Anonymous and is shown on the event page.
  • Their level's Benefits include Logo on the event page.

The level's Logo size decides how big it shows. See The sponsor wall.

Good to know

  • An SVG with a solid shape filling the frame is a logo on a background. Ovante refuses to approve it and says so. Ask for a version with a transparent background.
  • SVGs are cleaned before they're published, and only a picture of the logo reaches your page.
  • The live screen, the journal and printing use the logo as a picture, with its own colors.
