UMD Responsive Wrapper

If you happen to be looking for an official looking yet responsive UMD wrapper for your site, perhaps this code will help.

I’ve uploaded all the essentials that can make this happen. It may be possible to accomplish this with even less code, but this should get you started anyway.

The attached ZIP file contains four files inside.
1. The example INDEX.html page (needed CSS is embedded in this page)
2.The UMD logo with a white faded glow in the background
3. Smaller and transparent UMD logo (for mobile)
4. A “blank” transparent PNG, used as a button to click, sits over the UMD logo
