When placing either the logo on an illustration or photograph, make sure the area where the logo is positioned is as clear as possible from any patterns and color variations.

Do not use inadequate quality artwork, use only EPS files provided by Gracenote, Inc. Do not use low-resolution or recreated artwork.

Do not place logo on busy backgrounds or on backgrounds that do not provide enough contrast.

Do not change the size or position of any of the elements in the identity system.
