Everything that makes it look like ZAOstock.

    Dark-background placements - the mark itself is near-white, so it needs a dark card behind it.

The near-white moose, on light vs. dark

The near-white moose on a light background - nearly invisibleThe near-white moose on a dark background - the way to actually use it

Left: on Paper 100, the mark all but disappears. Right: on Ink 950, it reads. Always give this file a dark card.

How to use it

Clear space, minimum size, and what not to do.

Clear space

The moose with clear space around it

Keep empty space around the mark equal to at least 10% of its own width on every side - nothing else (text, another logo, an edge of the frame) inside that margin. The mark is a dense, detailed illustration; crowding it is what breaks it first, before size does.

Minimum size

The moose at 32px - too smallThe moose at 64px - the floor

Never render the full mark (moose + wordmark) below 64px wide. Determined by actually rendering it at 16 through 96px and looking, not assumed: the ZAOSTOCK wordmark inside the mark is illegible under ~40px and still marginal at 48px - 64px is the first size where it reads cleanly. Need something smaller than that? Use the web-sized or alt-render mark on its own, or the wordmark-only lettering file above, not a shrunk full mark.

  • Short (social bio, ~150 chars)

    ZAOstock - 8 acts, Saturday, October 3, 2026, Franklin Street Parklet, Ellsworth, Maine. Free to attend.

  • Medium (one paragraph)

    ZAOstock is a free, independent music festival on Saturday, October 3, 2026 at the Franklin Street Parklet in Ellsworth, Maine - 8 acts, 12 PM - 6 PM, free to attend. The evening continues at Black Moon, next door.

  • Long (press-style)

    ZAOstock returns to Ellsworth, Maine on Saturday, October 3, 2026, bringing 8 independent acts to the Franklin Street Parklet for a free, all-ages afternoon of music, 12 PM - 6 PM. There is no ticket cost and no gate. When the outdoor stage wraps, the night moves next door to Black Moon for the official after-party. ZAOstock is built and run by an independent community of musicians and digital creators - not a label, not a venue chain.

Usage

One line each.

  • Ground is paper, text is ink - not white and black.
  • The moose is the mark; there is no separate “red logo”.
  • Credit whoever made it - attabotty for the primary mark, Candy (CandyToyBox) for everything else on this page.
  • Nothing here is final until it is live on zaostock.com - this is the library, not a promise.
