I can see what I can do tonight after I do another icon. I should do a design so that I can update the twitter, google+ and facebook profile as well when that happens. We would have that graphic ready on the social media backgrounds before we make the posts on them saying saying [yay 1,000,000 downloads], possibly with the Get It Here version in the post itself.
I'm thinking "depict growth" my idea is a background made of soft stockmarket-like upward-right wisps/lines (no explicit arrows). Incorporate soft greens, and silver maybe. Get It Here (With Get It Here Text) Twitter (Background Only) Google+ (Background Only) Facebook (Background Only) Homepage Header (Smaller Background with Logo Only) General 400x600px for blog etc. On Thu, Mar 6, 2014 at 4:30 AM, Oliver-Rainer Wittmann <orwittm...@googlemail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > > On 05.03.2014 20:47, Rob Weir wrote: >> >> If you look at the SourceForge page you'll see that shows 99.7 million >> downloads: >> >> >> http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/stats/timeline?dates=2011-11-29+to+2014-03-18 >> >> But that number includes the downloads of Language Packs.
