Fonts
The font of the impcat wordmark is Roboto Regular, an open source Google font, except we removed the dot on the “i”.
In case you’d like your copy texts to match the logo, you can download the font here.
Watermark
The impcat watermark is a simple “not a real paintjob” disclaimer for people posting simulation screenshots on social media. Being hidden by default, the watermark can be activated inside the app from the main menu before taking a screenshot.
Do NOT treat the watermark as a logo. It’s supposed to be placed on simulation result images exclusively.
Clear Space
Minimum Size
Positioning
Place the watermark in the upper right or the lower right corner of the image. The PNG and EPS files provided on this page have predefined clear space paddings, so all you need to do is align the file in the corner in its entirety.
The PNG and EPS files have a transparent clear space, so they can also overlap the image without obscuring too much. In case the watermark happens to overlap your image, that’s fine.
Do not use a converted JPG version with an opaque background that obscures the image.
Do not crop the watermark to “hide” it behind the image. Either leave it overlapping or adjust your image for more white space, to make room for the watermark.
Trivia
Although the in-app watermark was introduced in a later update of impcat, its design is just as old as the app itself.
The “p” above the “i” in the impcat watermark is actually the reason why the logo has no dot on the “i”.
