As someone with a more "outside" perspective... boy that one is ugly. And really doesn't provide a lot of "recognizability". I'm running Plasma on ArchLinux and I see the "K in the gear" logo in the bottom left corner of my screen; replacing this with the three different sized, oddly spaced dots and the '>' symbol? Doesn't sound like an improvement in branding to me. And if I go to https://www.kde.org/workspaces/plasmadesktop/ I don't see a consistent brand identity at all. The logo you mention here isn't even on that site. My 2¢ would be to come up with a strong logo that is simple and provides a good connection to Plasma as a brand and then use that consistently everywhere. But you first need the artwork. /D _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
