# Proposal Format

We have two formats of proposals:

* **Long Form** - This is done on Google Docs and is a long form document, often spanning anywhere between 60 and 120 pages.&#x20;
* **Short Form** - This is a Google Slides document that is shorter and is more suitable for smaller proposals and also as a summarized version of the long form proposal, that can be given to key stakeholders.&#x20;

## Images for Proposal

* For icons, you can use [www.undraw.co](https://undraw.co) and use our red code #e3211a when choosing a color.
* For proposal cover images, use [www.unsplash.com](https://unsplash.com) to search and find an appropriate image.
