**Made by XR for XR -- fonts, logos, colours, woodblock images, icons**
The visual creativity of XR actions and outreach has been instrumental in
the rise of the movement.
**The Design Programme v1.1** describes and explains the XR Branding - how and why to use it.
The full (10mb PD) document is
available to download from the XR's Cloud. Note that the 2nd font has changed from Crimson to Karla (see more info below).
Some quick guides to the information in the design programme can be found below:
### File & Image Formats
Many of the images are available as SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) files. Converting them to PNG or JPEG takes some expertise. But these core woodblocks and images can also be [downloaded from Aktivisda](https://rebeltoolkit.extinctionrebellion.uk/books/design/page/visuals-generator-aktivisda) as .png files in a colour of your choice.

# Extinction Symbol
The symbol above represents extinction. The circle signifies the planet, while the hourglass inside serves as a warning that time is rapidly running out for many species.
Extinction Rebellion (XR) is a do-it-together movement. All our design and artwork can be used non-commercially for the purpose of planet saving. This does not mean creating merchandise for fundraising or sending XR a percentage of your sales. We do not endorse or create any merchandise and we will pursue and prosecute anyone who does. The Extinction Symbol was designed in 2011 by street artist ESP, who loans XR usage on the same basis.
More information can be found:
- on the extinction symbol website,
- in XR's [design programme documentation](https://rebeltoolkit.extinctionrebellion.uk/books/design/page/what-is-the-design-programme#bkmrk-non-commercial),
