I understand your concern...
But the 100k favicon.ico has been there for about 2 years. ;-)
I'm sorry, I've only seen the 1k version.

the new Google+ design is criticised by a lot of users and is giving me
a hard time to adapt all the logos/graphics.
It is now similar to the phone/tablet layout...
About your thoughts concerning the size of the favicon.ico:
I reworked it. It now contains 16x16, 32x32, 48x48 and 64x64. Every
browser should be happy with that and the size shrunk to 32k.
Can you live with that? ;-)
sure, that's better than 100k.
PS:
I just want to be sure that you understand my concern:
We have to make sure that the loading time is not decreased just due
to some fence stuff. We have to think about pro and contra. The
webpage is opened thousand of times. The G+ webpage only by much less
people.
Even when it's just the favicon it is opened by every browser request.
So, it starts - as always - with the first step. ;-)

I did all changes now... It could take some time to be visible.
If you go to:
https://plus.google.com/+openoffice
there is a a link to our homepage underneath the logo. Behind the link
there is a check mark. If you point the mouse on it it says
"Verknüpfte
Website". This is only to ensure that this website really belongs
to the
profile.
But wait! It can be, that you see the "new" design from Google+. So it
may be not visible for you.
In my eyes the new design is quite ugly and not ready for release. But
Google thinks it should be default... :-O
Hard to explain, here is a picture (classical Google+):

thanks for the screenshot. Than it makes sense. As you thought already
I see a different webpage style.

Last night I did some changes to our homepage... ;-)
thanks for your update. I've some questions:
- Renewed the google-site-verification. Now we have a
confirmed
link to
https://www.openoffice.org on Google+
What is the reason to exchange the old one? Got it invalid?
No, the old one was for http, now the link is for https. Google
needed a
new verification code for that.
Originally this was done by Rob Weir (?), so I just changed the
string
in index.html.
OK, but what is now with HTTP? Isn't it then needed to have 2
codes?
Or does the code for HTTPS include HTTP automatically?
Yes. It is just to verify the quality of the link (See the checkmark
behind the link on Google+)
sorry, I'm not familar with G+. Wich checkmark do you mean?
- Added favicon.png (Which now seems unnecessary, but
doesn't
hurt
either)
There is already one. Please see
".../branding/images/favicon.ico".
So, please don't put other files into the root directory except
dirs
and HTML files. It's already enough filled with things that do
not
belong there. ;-)
Nice to have a favicon in a subfolder, when it is not
referenced in
html. It will never be used! ;-)
Browsers look by default in the root for favicon.ico. There was
already
one since 2014. It was 100k, the new one is 99k.
But we can surely move the favicon.ico and change the link
accordingly.
Yes, please.
OK, I will move it to /branding/images. What to do with the old
unused
icon? Can I rename it?
"favicon_16x16.ico" looks like a good name for the backup.
And I will delete favicon.png. Hopefully everything will work
without
it...
No risk, no fun ... ;-)
- Added a link to favicon.ico and favicon.png to get a
thumbnail
for
the link to our homepage on YouTube
- Increased the size of the orb in favicon.ico, so it
looks much
clearer now.
From 1kB to 100kB is IMHO not really an improvement.
Compared with
some Youtube visitors, this will increase the loading time of
every
webpage request.
As I said before, that 1k favicon.ico wasn't used. Who ever put it
there...
But I think we can delete favicon.png. That was just a fallback.
Eventually Google only needed some time to crawl the webpage.
Where can I see the icon in the Youtube channel [1]? When
checking
the
graphic links nothing refers back to get them from our webpage.
There are four links at the right side of the channel graphic.
Homepage
is the first and had a generic icon until recently.
The icons are automatically pulled, when YouTube (Google)
checks the
link. That did work for Facebook, Twitter and Google+, but not
for our
homepage.
So, that means Youtube goes to "www.openoffice.org", looks in
"index.html" for an favicon entry and if existing take it from the
given path?
Right. Google pulls only the proper resolution.
If you can't see the AOO orb in front of the link now, you may
have to
empty your browser cache and reload the page.
Sure, I can see it. But I don't see an increase of quality. It's
the
same size as on our homepage. So, why is there a new and bigger
favicon needed?
Until recently, you couldn't even see the icon...
It contains graphics for different resolutions like before.
Therefore it
is bigger, but more versatile than a small 16x16 icon.
We live in the times of HiDPI- and Retina-Displays!
And the one I adapted has been there since 2014 (file date). The
size of
the new file is even slightly smaller now.
Let me clarify, the dimensions are the same, only it uses the
available
space better and looks "bigger".
I think you can see the difference here:
old: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/48386075/favicon_old.png
new: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/48386075/favicon.png
It's indeed looking bigger - or better said it's filling the complete
available space.
Again, thanks for the updates.
Marcus
BTW, in the near future Google (Chrome) plans to mark all
websites
without https as "unsafe".
We already have a certificate for our homepage, do we want to
make
https
as default?
(Some pages have problems
(https://www.openoffice.org/stats/downloads.html) so that
must be
investigated in advance)
Hm, I don't see a problem here.
I can see the text, but not the graphics, because they are loaded
from
an "unsafe place" (Firefox, Chrome and IE block this by default)
This is only a problem, if we set https as default. Now the
page is
loaded with http. You need to use the above link to see it.
Thanks for taking care.

The XCF Marcus uploaded to SVN is usable.
Download it from here:

should I update the file property via SVN? If so whats the

to use?
