[POLL] New Linux Mint logo, now re-done!
A few months ago I made this. It was received very well. However, there were some issues.
This logo has a leaf shape. It's 50% circle, 50% square. The circle was too boring (though it is still an alternate version, and there are also high badges) and it was not minty. The colours are #4caf50 and #388e3c.
Now, I have redone it. There are more variants, a new font (Ubuntu Medium in lowercase), and it's pixel-perfect and the "Lm" is aligned to the diagonal. The "L" in the "Lm" was made higher so it does not look like a three-fingered fist anymore (no offence) . The "m" was also made a bit higher, but not by much. I have made 38, 53 including LMDE logos variants. Some might say it's too much, but in reality they are all just different coloured logos, and some mono and outline variants, plus some circle and square ones which should not be used much. However they all look delightful.

I liked them before, and still like them. These reflect considerable artistic effort on your part.
Thanks
Thanks

I really like yours. The two shades of green give it the look of a mint leaf!

If anyone has some Blender experience, you could try to make a 3d wallpaper.

The 3D leaf is very cool.

An optical illusion Now that you pointed it out, I see it! In any case, a very cool logo!

This two-tone looks like the glossy buttons from around 2010.

So do you like it? Plus, it doesn't. It's material design.
Re: [POLL] New Linux Mint logo, now re-done!
I think it looks outdated, and material design doesn't have split buttons. That split thing was web 2.0 before flat which was before material.gugalcrom123 wrote: ⤴Wed May 11, 2022 8:55 amSo do you like it? Plus, it doesn't. It's material design.

Actually it has, for icons, not for buttons. A good example are the old icons for google apps.DPM wrote: ⤴Wed May 11, 2022 9:06 amI think it looks outdated, and material design doesn't have split buttons.

Re: [POLL] New Linux Mint logo, now re-done!
The button was an example where this effect was used heavily in that era. Other examples would be the progress bars in Win 7. The point isn't that the logo is neither a button nor a progress bar, but that this split effect was all over the place in that era. That's why I think the logo looks 2010-ish.

You are going to ask for LMDE logos. I made LMDE logos.
