Thanks for the comments, everyone. I've made a "darker" version of the logo and splashscreen, you can find them in "scribusdark.tar.gz": http://www.hiddenfortress.net/clients/scribus/ http://www.hiddenfortress.net/clients/scribus/files/scribusdark.tar.gz (the exact file link)
Again, just overwrite the files in /usr/local/lib/scribus/icons/. >if you create something 'more rounded' to integrate into my Noia >desktop look I'll be very happy :) >http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=3883 Petr: I might do a Noia version later; right now, this icon is part of a larger KDE icon set I'm working on. >Did you create this in scribus? Danny: no, Scribus, being a desktop publishing program, isn't really appropriate for complex raster or vector graphics. The splashscreen was made in Photoshop, the icon in Illustrator. I do look forward to the day when I'll be able to use open source applications to make this sort of thing. >Is the SVG broken? I just get a sold blue piece over the book.

Supposedly KDE kind of works with SVG icons, though I haven't figured out how. But I'm not sure Illustrator made the SVG file properly. >Agree with others comments about the lightness -- I don't know where all >the interest in pastel colors on computer screens has come from, but I >find it bland and too XP-ish (or OSX-ish).
