I'd be willing to contribute some funds if need be. BTW, the Wikipedia entry now reads in part: " The GUI uses the Qt toolkit; the syntax-aware editor is based on Scintilla ." In what way is the editor now based on Scintilla? On Wednesday, January 18, 2023 at 7:20:48 AM UTC-5 Edward K. Ream

A couple of things gleaned from the dreamstime license page: https://www.dreamstime.com/about-stock-image-licenses 1) The "content level" for the leonine image is level 5. For this level a 'Royalty-Free License' costs < 4$, with a 'web usage' license of < $10. The question, it seems to me, is

Yes, I see that the new version has multiple small spirals instead of one large one. ISTM that the whole point of such watermarks is to prevent 'out of rights' use. (Edward) sorry to be a pain, but I think that on the one hand putting out more publicity for Leo, eg. via the Wikipedia page, and

Re: Please help me edit Leo's wikipedia page

Searching this group for 'Dreamstime' brings up conversations in 2013 and 2014 about this logo. "Royalty free" doesn't indicate free use -- it indicates that the image is able to be used without royalties, once a proper license has been purchased. I imagine that would entail a Dreamstime

It appears the original is from Dreamstime: https://www.dreamstime.com/royalty-free-stock-photos-tribal-lion-image3490018 They've changed their watermark in the interim -- the new watermark has the spiral still, but smaller. It also appears the original had red eyes, which were probably edited

Re: Please help me edit Leo's wikipedia page

The watermark has been discussed a few times over the last 11ish years that I've been kicking around here -- there was resistance to purchasing a license to actually use the image, and then the discussions seem to have died. It's bugged me for the better part of a decade. Jake On Sun, Jan 15,

Re: Please help me edit Leo's wikipedia page

FWIW, it has always seemed slightly shady to me that the Leo 'splashscreen.xxx" graphic, both on Leo's startup itself and now on the Wikipedia page, has some sort of watermark on it. I always thought it was a light grey '(c)' mark, but having looked harder I now think it is a coarse spiral.

I've added the LeoJS link, but because it's not mentioned in the article, I don't foresee it staying long. I cannot remove the version tag, it's a requirement of the software infoblock. Unfortunately WikiMedia are unlikely to budge on this. I don't have any real interest in being a Wikipedia
