Where can I get a bigger version of this logo online?

Last year I needed a bigger logo and I just downloaded the small image and made my own. I used the down load and blew it up on a copier. After that I taped it to my sliding glass door, taped a clean sheet of paper over the top and redrew it. My version of a light table. Flat bed scanner did the rest.

Good Luck

Yeah, that's what I'm doing. Thanks!

On a related note, anyone know about copyright for this image? Does BORG own this image and anyone know if they allow people to use it to, for example, make stickers?

There is most definitely a copyright on the logo image. There's also a copyright on 'Black Rock City' and yet another on the crescent shaped layout of the city. I'm sure there are a few others.

Can't really answer your question about what can and can't be used for stickers. Ordinarily common sense should dictate how someone chooses to use an image but... interpretation of such things is often one of the reasons copyrights get set up in the first place.

Right. I would never use someone's image illegally. I'll ask da BORG. Thanks!

The logo is copyrighted by a couple of members of the board. You are welcome to make whatever you want out of it as long as you are not selling your logo-fied items.

That particular logo originated, I believe, among the Rangers. There is a slightly bigger one on their site http://rangers.burningman.com .

(shhh...I was never here)

Great, thanks. I was thinking about just free stickers (maybe).

So is that image Ranger-specific? I mean, i don't want to be giving away stickers with logos that indicate ranger-hood...

It shouldn't be a problem so long as the words 'ranger' or 'rangers' aren't anywhere to be seen.

Ranger Genius · Post by **Ranger Genius** » Mon May 16, 2005 12:20 pm

No, it now only specifically means rangers when presented with the word "Ranger" or on a tan or khaki field.

edit: this post was redundant. Badger types faster.

I used that one in a tat and no one said anything.

Whoops mike--the skinners will be dropping by your house in the middle of the night to effect a removal. . .

okay, I'm probably joking

HughMungus · Post by **HughMungus** » Tue May 17, 2005 10:01 am

Or put a little © on it.

this logo would be incredibly easy to duplicate as line art and as such making it infinitely scalable.

HughMungus · Post by **HughMungus** » Tue May 17, 2005 4:20 pm

Yeah, I *love* that one, in particular...perhaps ever since someone showed me their tattoo which was just like it...and I'm tempted, to get a tattoo, too. Call me a weenie but Burning Man really does change some people's lives...

A joke there Ranger.

Ranger Genius · Post by **Ranger Genius** » Wed May 18, 2005 10:26 am

I'm aware. I was just taking it one step farther.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to arrange that series of infinitely regressing ©s? Hit "Quote" on that message and have a look at the code. Must have taken me nearly twenty minutes to get it figured out.

A cheer for Genius!

Always willing to give 20 minutes to make eplaya a sillier place!

Bravo!

Has artistic merit. Very cool. Be awesome if you could do something like that on the Playa and set it up so from some point it looks like a vanishing set of ©'s copyrighting the man...
