Whether you are writing about Wavely, building a community around it, or telling your followers where to find you, these guidelines explain how to use the Wavely name and logo so that people can always tell what is really from Wavely.
The logo
The Wavely mark is a hand-painted illustration. It is always shown exactly as it was drawn, beside the Wavely wordmark in Wavely blue.

WavelyThe logo may only be used exactly as shown here. Changing it, or using it in a way that confuses people about what comes from Wavely, is not allowed, including:
- Recoloring, restyling, redrawing, or tracing the mark.
- Stretching, rotating, cropping, or adding effects such as shadows or outlines.
- Placing the mark on busy images where it cannot be seen clearly.

For logo files and press assets, contact press@usewavely.com.
Wisp
Wisp is Wavely’s mascot, and he belongs to Wavely. His name, his look, and his personality are Wavely’s property, and Wisp™ is a Wavely trademark.
We would still love to see what you make of him. Draw him, paint him, animate him, dress him up, and put him in new places doing new things, then share your artwork on Wavely and anywhere else. What you add in your artwork is yours, but making or sharing it gives you no rights in Wisp himself. Wisp stays Wavely’s.
Claiming Wisp as your own, passing your artwork off as official, or using him to break our rules is not allowed, including:
- Claiming Wisp, or a character based on him, as your own original character.
- Registering, or trying to register, Wisp or a character based on him in your name, whether as a trademark, a copyright, a design, or any other right.
- Presenting your artwork as official Wavely artwork, or suggesting that Wavely made, approved, or endorses it. If your artwork could be mistaken for ours, label it as fan art.
- Using Wisp in content that breaks the Community Guidelines.
