# Tinkertanker logo library

> Logo-selection guidance for https://logos.tk.sg. Public downloads are the 18 original PNGs in this library. Choose by the brand actually shown in the artwork, then layout and background; do not substitute a related brand.

## Catalog and downloads

- [Logo gallery](https://logos.tk.sg/): visual previews and individual or multi-file PNG downloads.
- [Asset catalog](https://logos.tk.sg/logos.json): all filenames, site-relative `path` values, actual pixel `width` and `height`, preview backgrounds, and internal design-source links.

For a direct download, resolve an item's `path` against https://logos.tk.sg and percent-encode spaces as `%20`. The PNG links below are ready to fetch without JavaScript or sign-in. `source_url` points to the former collection's item page, not the direct PNG. `sources` contains Google Drive design-source pages, not public image URLs.

## How to choose

1. Match the requested name: Tinkertanker, Tinkercademy, Get Hacking, or Tinker Class. If the request only says “the company logo” and the intended brand is unclear, ask rather than guess.
2. Use a wordmark when the brand name needs to be readable. Horizontal layouts fit wide spaces; vertical/stacked layouts fit taller spaces. Use an icon-only asset when a symbol is requested or the brand is already identified nearby. These are practical selection suggestions, not a formal brand manual.
3. Match the actual destination background. Tinkertanker has explicit on-Light and on-Dark versions. Tinkercademy has black-text and white-text versions. Get Hacking has colour-text and white-text versions. Use light-background/black-or-colour-text versions on light surfaces, and on-Dark/white-text versions on dark surfaces. Inspect the coloured elements too: a white wordmark alone does not guarantee sufficient contrast on a photo or coloured background.
4. The catalog's `preview` value is the gallery background (`light` or `dark`), inferred from filenames; it is not a separate approval rule. All current PNGs have transparency. A filename saying “on white” describes the intended background, not an opaque white canvas. Preview the final composite before using it.
5. Use the actual dimensions in the catalog, not width hints in filenames: some differ by a pixel. Preserve aspect ratio and avoid upscaling raster artwork beyond its useful resolution. Choose a source/vector workflow if the PNG is too small for the required output.

## Tinkertanker

The Primary Logo combines the robot with a stacked TINKER/TANKER wordmark. It is a practical starting point for an otherwise unspecified Tinkertanker logo request. The Tertiary Logo is a wide, single-line TINKERTANKER wordmark with the robot. “Primary” and “Tertiary” are the supplied asset names; this library does not provide a Secondary logo.

## Tinkercademy

These assets show the glasses icon and, except for the icon-only file, the TINKERCADEMY wordmark. Pick horizontal or vertical to fit the available space; choose black text for light backgrounds or white text for dark backgrounds. The single icon-only file is previewed on light; no separate dark-background icon is supplied.

## Get Hacking and Tinker Class

Important catalog caveat: the gallery and JSON group all `GH` and `TCPL` files under the category “Tinker Class.” This grouping does not mean the wordmarks are interchangeable. `GH` files with text say GET HACKING; `TCPL logo - horizontal.png` says TINKER CLASS. Select by that actual text, not by `category` alone. Both use the same illustrated icon in the supplied artwork.

For Get Hacking, choose a horizontal or vertical wordmark and the appropriate text contrast. The tagline variant includes “THE STORE FOR CURIOUS TINKERERS.” Choose it when that tagline is wanted and can remain legible.

No dark-background Tinker Class wordmark or tagline variant is supplied. If a suitable supplied asset is unavailable, ask for a suitable source or use a contrasting light panel in the layout rather than inventing another variant.

## Formats, sources, and limits

- Public asset downloads here are PNG only, with transparency. There are no public SVG, PDF, EPS, JPEG, or ZIP logo downloads on this site; do not invent URLs by changing extensions.
- For scalable or editable artwork, consult the matching item's `sources` in the catalog. Links labelled “SVG source” and “Source package (ZIP)” are internal Google Drive pages requiring Tinkertanker Google Workspace access. In particular, the Tinkercademy horizontal assets link to a source package, not an individually hosted SVG. If access is unavailable, request an export from the asset owner; do not claim a source was downloaded or verified through sign-in.
- Use supplied artwork rather than redrawing, stretching, recolouring, or cropping it to manufacture a missing variant. Keep the wording and colours of the selected asset intact.
- This is selection guidance based on the supplied files, not a licence or permission grant. The repository does not specify formal clear-space, minimum-size, print-colour, or licensing rules. Obtain those requirements and any needed usage approval from the brand owner; do not infer them from public availability.
- When returning a selection, give the brand, variant, intended background, actual pixel dimensions, and direct PNG URL. Mention any unresolved background, format, or source-access limitation.
