I hadn't looked at qgis.org lately and wasn't really clear on what the current logo looked like. So I went to look, and my reactions: wow! the web site has been really spiffed up. Other than the top download which says "Available on Windows, Mac, Linux", implying that you can't run qgis on other operating systems, and linking to youtube, I don't see anything to complain about. I really like the left blurb/right image style, given how nice the images are. It comes across as well thought out and a great landing place for the qgis-curious. The logo looks fine. I'm not sure if "the logo" is the stylized Q with the floating orange/yellow/grean diagonal, or the the word QGIS using that character, or both -- but I think it looks fine. All in all I don't understand what problem needs solving. We have a nice logo, and it's in place. I wonder if anyone who remembers the last logo change has an estimate of total hours of effort to change it (given a new, completed design). _______________________________________________ QGIS-User mailing list QGIS-User@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
