Logos, Assets and Sourcing Images

Submitted by tylerwilman on Sun, 11/15/2009 - 11:51am.

Hi there,

I was wondering if you were able to provide a vector file of your CakeMail logo as well as some high res screen shots that highlight your software.

I was also curious about your thoughts on sourcing imagery. My suggestion is that I will source the neccessary images for the design and place the unlicenced images into the comp. If you want to proceed then you can purchase the proper rights to those images and make them available so that I can complete the design.

Does that sound alright or did you have another approach?

Hello Tyler, I added an eps

Submitted by cakemail on Sun, 11/15/2009 - 1:25pm.

Hello Tyler,

I added an eps file. I hope it is ok.

i would tend to avoid getting into screenshots. i feel that is getting in too much details for the message we are trying to pass.

I'm fine with what you are suggesting in reguard to imagery. Make sure the rights comes at a resonable fee though.

Let me know if you need anything else!

Francois
