[NOW WITH POLL!] New logo

[gugalcrom123]

I mean I don't know how to make a Plymouth screenshot.
Print Screen does nothing. Is there a plymouth preview application with printscreen support?

I have never heard of Plymouth. I can't help you here.

Plymouth is the splash screen which hides systemd at startup.

I still love your logo and voted for it.

And we need some cool dark wallpaper with it.

I'll make a material one tomorrow.

Anyways, my logo is much better than those ugly "app icon" logos with a "m" in them.

Here are some dark wallpapers:

That is utterly delicious. The shadows are so perfect. It really screams 'modern' and 'premium', IMO.

I love it, but not the shadow on the bottom-left; I think it'd be better without, because it looks a bit strange with bits of the shadow cut off, and it doesn't really match what you elsewhere in the image.

It's because of the SVG page size. Exporting everything to PNG will do it.

That's exactly the impression Linux Mint should leave to new users. That wallpaper should be the default for Mint 21.

Why not post this under an already existing topic. viewtopic.php?f=19&t=359552
New ideas about logos staff signatures are fine (yours is looking good b.t.w), but keep it a little more centralized instead of spread out over the forum

It's related to this logo

[Termy]

I agree: it's related directly with the logo.

BTW, from looking at the traditional signature images, I realise just how big yours are, so I recommend halving the size. It looks amazing, but they're huge and would wind up taking up a lot of space in a thread with several posts from moderators and what-not. Thoughts?

I also really like this logo; I've already made it my menu panel icon. As said by other posters (postees?) it has a modern look to it.
Nice job.

They are SVG, so you can do just that. Lower it to 48px.
May I make a single-line version?

Good to know.

Do you mean "should"? If so, ... nah, I don't think a single line version is needed.

Sorry, I'm not native.

There's a whole world of pain when you try to change the logo for a produxt that has its logos registered, so I can't see Clem galloping through that minefield too soon.
howevere that logo looks rather nice, and for personal use it has a lot of possibilities.

You could easily add that logo design to the 3D logos and to the logos on the Mint Cinnamon wallpapers using the same method I used in this Mint Leaves wallpaper and logos (including my Panel and Menu icons).
My mint leaves were the only ones I could find in a hurry, so they are a bit rough but a nice smooth image like yours would be fairly easy I think.

I think it would look great.
You've probably seen these two over the last year or so more than once in my screenshots.

Old style:


Round style:


They were just done in a couple of minutes using GIMP. Just slip your pattern into the 3d logo the same way.

The shape is different too.

In my new Papier icon theme, distributor-logo-linux-mint was replaced by this.

Yes, I forgot doing it in 3D for Cinnamon wallpaper would also need a whole new background pattern.

Go here for a better, updated version

[gugalcrom123]

There's just one thing which irks me about the logo: the top-left corner of the trailing part of the 'm' doesn't align with the crease going diagonally across the leaf. I think it would look much better (or at least settle my OCD down) if that trailing part (like a tail) were either 10-20% shorter or stopped when the top-left corner meats the crease.

I have fixed it.
