Question is how far you want to go in such a contest? There's NETBEANS-146 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-146) which lists all art work which needs to be touched in order for a complete re-branding to take place.
By this, you'll learn that Platform and IDE has different splashes, updater has its own splash and so on. On top of this, there's also art work in the IDE's installer. (not listed in NETBEANS-146 because it isn't donated yet). IMO all of this should have a coherent graphical expression, i.e. use same base logo (the new one), same color scheme, same fonts, etc. I think the minimum to ask for in such a contest is two splash screens, one for Platform and another for IDE. But that would still leave 'open' the other art work. On the other hand we do not want to create too high a barrier for such a contest. So I'm torn. /Lars On Thu, Mar 8, 2018 at 9:54 PM, Neil C Smith <[email protected]> wrote: > On Thu, 8 Mar 2018 at 20:47 Antonio <[email protected]> wrote: > > > +1 This is a great idea! > > > > Yep, +1.
