<div dir="ltr">Okay. So dual-logo doesn't work either. How about this? We create some video channel not on YouTube, Google pays for everything, Google gets recognition (with logo) on the YouTube channel in recognition of its financial contribution, the GIMP gets recognition (with logo) on the other channel in recognition of its ongoing willingness to do whatever is necessary to keep the boat afloat.

Last year - upon receiving its thus far largest single donation, from<br>
the handshake foundation, GIMP decided to *spend* some of the received<br>
funds on a larger sponsorship of LGM than usual (many years GIMP have<br>
sponsored social events and even the general travel reimbursement<br>
fund.) GIMP considers LGM important enough that in the past we indeed<br>
sponsored the travel of people from other projects if the crowd<br>
funding/sponsorship efforts failed to meet expectations, in the future<br>
we hope that other projects involved get successful enough in their<br>
fund-raising that they also can contribute financially in addition to<br>
helping out with organizing the event (and funding own participants<br>
travel and accomodation). The videos are one of the most substantial<br>
traces of the event. GIMP has offering funds to get C3VOC to use<br>
professional and streamlined workflow and equipment for the<br>
capture/streaming and creation of videos. Keeping them<br>
advertising/logo free is valuable to us (LGM/GIMP), we also prefer our<br>
logo to not show up as a sponsor along with corporate sponsors; and<br>
would rather be mentioned in text - or perhaps not at all. if others<br>
use logos on the website.<br>
