ArtCraft brand assets: license
The ArtCraft name, wordmark and mark (the "ArtCraft Marks"), including every file in this
directory in every color, size and format, are owned by the ArtCraft Team. They are trademarks
and are NOT open source. They are not covered by EffectCraft's MIT OR Apache-2.0 license, and nothing in
that license, in NOTICE or in any other file of this repository grants any right to them.
Permission
The ArtCraft Team grants a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, royalty-free
permission to use the ArtCraft Marks only:
1. as part of copies of this repository; and
2. within EffectCraft itself, its documentation and its official builds, to identify EffectCraft as made
by the ArtCraft team and community and to link to getartcraft.com and its community.
Conditions
The permission holds only while every one of these is true:
- The marks are used exactly as supplied in this directory. Do not redraw, recolor, crop,
stretch, rotate, animate, outline or add effects to them, extract parts of them, or combine
them with any other name, mark or artwork.
- They are used only in the context of EffectCraft, and only to say that the ArtCraft team makes it.
They must never suggest that the ArtCraft Team made, sponsors, endorses, certifies or supports
any other product, service, fork, modified version, plug-in, organization or person.
- Neither the marks nor the ArtCraft name appear in the name, logo, icon, domain, social media
handle, app-store listing, advertising or marketing of anything other than EffectCraft.
Forks and modified versions
If you distribute or publish a modified version of EffectCraft, or any work derived from it, you must
remove the ArtCraft Marks from it (or replace them with your own) and must not call it ArtCraft or
present it as an ArtCraft product. You may say, in plain text, that your work is based on EffectCraft by
the ArtCraft team. A fork kept only to propose changes back to this repository may keep the marks
unchanged.
Everything else
Any use not expressly permitted here needs prior written permission from the ArtCraft Team
(https://getartcraft.com/). The permission ends automatically for anyone who breaks these terms.
All other rights are reserved.
