Logos and Sticker Backing boxes - Orion Pobursky - 2023-05-04
Here's the final guidance regarding logos and sticker backing boxes:
- Logos and sticker boxes will be located in the p/ directory.
- Logo naming expectations are outlined below
- Sticker box naming will follow a standard to be developed prior to the first release of such a part
- Since documentation will be moving to the library site and reformatted, the documentation is this sticky thread
Logo Guidance:
The file name shall follow the following format:
logo-<brand/theme>-<short description>.dat
where:
<brand/theme> is the brand or theme of the logo. For example: lego, ford, chevrolet, maersk, etc. or space, town, castle, etc...
<short description> is a very brief description, preferably one or two words, with dashes for spaces. For example: text, text-outline, etc.
Additionally, a logo should only become a primitive if it has reuse value. A one-off part with a logo should just have the logo inlined.

How about numbering? Should we use 01, 02, and so on, or a single digit 1, 2, 3 ...?
Most of the current unofficial prims use two digits, but we have some that doesn't.
