IDENTITY COMPONENTS The full logo may not always be necessary to identify the congress. Color gradients, the bird icon, and the text, set in the Lato font, can represent the identity in situations where the congress has already been identified. Here the feather shape, gradients, and bird icon are used to communicate the identity. The foot of the front bird is flat, so it should always be touching a flat surface when used apart from the logo. 6 Graphics Table of Contents

COLORS (cont d) WHITE The logo and independent components may appear rendered in white on top of color. PHOTOGRAPHS & TAGS Only highly trained, professional designers are permitted to use the logo over photographs. If you do not fit that description, contact the design team with your requested layout. The basic logo (version 1) and independent components may appear rendered in white, on top of extremely detailed or extremely blurred photos of plummage and other photographs of birds. When tagging a photograph, by attaching the basic logo to the top, left, or right edge of the image, the two leftmost, topmost, or rightmost anchor points (respectively) may be extended outward to account for bleed and avoid cropping the logo when printed. 10 colors Table of Contents

WEB BACKGROUND RESPONSIVE GRID The NOC CBO website (www.noc-cbo2015.com.br) uses an adaptive grid that adjusts depending on the screen size of the device where the website is viewed, ranging from smart phones to desktops. The breakpoints shown here refer to current standards. As new technology is introduced, these may be adjusted based on updated sizing. 768 x 1024* *Although width varies among larger sizes, content remains the same. Only the background changes. 1024 x 768* 1366 x 768* content 320 x 480 content content 480 x 320 content content Vertical and horizontal small mobile devices use an reduced interface over a single-layer gradient background. Vertical mid-sized mobile devices use a full interface over a singlelayer gradient background. Horizontal mid-sized mobile devices use a full interface over a double-layer gradient background. The bottom layer is 90% opacity and the top layer 100%. Desktops with large displays use a full interface over a double-layer gradient background, plus the double-bird identity component. The bottom layer is 90% opacity and the top layer 100%. The double-bird is placed as a midlayer inbetween the other two. It is black, 10% opacity. 12 Layout Table of Contents
BACKGROUND The background has three variations that respond to grid adjustments (see above). The top layer of the larger backgrounds has a 30% drop shadow with a 7% spread/blur, and 0 x/y offset. A separate, single-layer background for smaller devices should be created to speed up load times. The code for the color gradient is: html: <body><div class= mainbody >insert page content here</div><body> css:.mainbody { /*fill screen*/ position:absolute; top: 0px; bottom: 0px; width: 100%; /*specify color: default for older browsers, then gradients for newer browsers*/ background: #339999; background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #006666 0%, #66cccc 100%); background:-webkit-linear-gradient(top, #006666 0%, #66cccc 100%); background: -o-linear-gradient(top, #006666 0%,#66cccc 100%); background: -ms-linear-gradient(top, #006666 0%,#66cccc 100%); background: linear-gradient(top, #006666 0%, #66cccc 100%); filter: progid:dximagetransform.microsoft.gradient( startcolorstr= #006666, endcolorstr= #66cccc,GradientType=0 ); } Do not directly target the <body> element with the gradient style. It is necessary to assign a class to a <div> element within the body for the gradient to render correctly. If you feel that this is incorrect, please contact the design team to request an update to this code. 13 Layout Table of Contents
