We are confident that you will find this image easy to reproduce and use in a variety of settings. We do require, however, that you adhere to a few simple guidelines when reproducing it.

First, do not separate the image from the words “Act Boldly.” The two elements need to stay together, because together they build the identity and recognition of not only the image but also the theme. The message is incomplete without one or the other.

Second, we have created two placements (horizontal and vertical) for the words “Act Boldly” that should work with whatever space needs or limitations you may have. Please do not move the words around, but use one of the two placements presented. They were designed quite deliberately for the sake of the visual integrity of the logo.

Finally, use only the colors as they are presented or the black-and-white version. Do not change or alter the colors in any way, or the order in which they appear. If you are reproducing in black-and-white, use the black-and-white version in the master copy so that you do not end up with shades of gray in the hands.

The various presentations of the theme graphic are available on this Web site for easy downloading. You will find the exact color specifications there as well. We can also provide you with a scalable and highly reproducible hard copy in black and white.

If you have any questions about either the use of the graphic or the image itself and its interpretation, please feel free to contact Deb Bogaert, Women of the ELCA director for communication, at 800-638-3522, ext. 2729, or by e-mail: deb.bogaert@elca.org
