Any logo works — but the higher the resolution, the better it looks on runway screens and in print. Vector is ideal (SVG, PDF, EPS or AI — scales perfectly); a high-res PNG with a transparent background is great too. Up to 50 MB. We store your original at full quality — nothing is compressed.

I'll email my logo to ankarafestla@gmail.com instead
