Re: [Qgis-developer] Master branch splash screen
Think the issue is dragged for no reason. We have a dev / master branch splash screen that says 1.9 alpha while we debate on leaf ... its important to have a splash screen that's relevant. So, high time that we change that. The debate can go on after that.

Hi, On Sat, Sep 7, 2013 at 2:26 AM, Anita Graser anitagra...@gmx.at wrote: next try: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.**com/u/42637169/qgis21_** 1generic.pnghttps://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42637169/qgis21_1generic.png now in green with dev instead of 2.1 :) I like the layout and color selection. Not sure I understand the leaf (?) background, though QGIS is used quite a bit for forestry and bio-sciences. Just a thought: maybe instead try a bunch of translucent icons (new icons for add layers?) floating/swirling around. I realize this is just an interim splash, but could be something like that might make a good graphic for the web site as well. That really is one of QGIS strongest core features: its ability to work with so many providers, both open and proprietary. Plus those new layer icons look good. If the new group photo is similar to the last two (a row or two of faces), then the use of both dev and master words in the layout means dev may cover some faces. 'Master' is really from git nomenclature, while dev is probably more commonly understood. So, I suggest just removing master and lowering dev to make more room for the photo. Maybe try dev in the master's yellow, then.

Is it ok if we take a pic in Brighton? It could be something generic until then. If you want, I can whip something up.
