Preferred Placement:

• Top left corner (most common)
• Top right corner (alternative)

Logo Variations

1. Black Logo + Teal Plus - PRIMARY for white backgrounds

Available Logo Assets

The plugin includes official FeedMob logo files in the assets/logos/ directory:

Logo Files:

• feedmob-logo-white-teal.svg - White text + teal plus (for dark backgrounds)
• feedmob-plus-icon-teal.svg - Standalone teal plus icon (design element)

Usage in Content Generation:

When creating FeedMob-branded content, reference these logo files using their absolute path:

# Example: Using logo in Python/PowerPoint generation
logo_path = os.path.join(PLUGIN_ROOT, "assets/logos/feedmob-logo-black-teal.svg")

# For white backgrounds (most common)
logo_file = "assets/logos/feedmob-logo-black-teal.svg"

# For dark/teal backgrounds
logo_file = "assets/logos/feedmob-logo-white-teal.svg"

# For design elements (plus icon only)
plus_icon = "assets/logos/feedmob-plus-icon-teal.svg"

Selection Guidelines:

• White background → Use feedmob-logo-black-teal.svg

• Decorative element → Use feedmob-plus-icon-teal.svg

Integration with Tools:

• When using SVG format, ensure proper scaling while maintaining aspect ratio
