A small thought about associating the new logo with the program: what about changing the color of the timeline position cursor in the program to the shade of orange in the new logo? It looks like it would compliment the program in both Breeze and Breeze Dark themes.<br>
<br>
Here are some mock-ups I made:<br>
Breeze Dark - <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/a0xu5zvf8kv8k2f/kdenlive%20new%20cursor%20color%20-%20breeze%20dark.jpg?dl=0" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.dropbox.com/s/a0xu5zvf8kv8k2f/kdenlive%20new%20cursor%20color%20-%20breeze%20dark.jpg?dl=0</a><br>

<br>
What do you all think?<br>

Hello Farid,<br>
<br>
Sorry it took so long to answer. We had an interesting exchange on the last<br>
Kdenlive café about your logo proposal and the website (1), and everyone<br>
agrees that the logo looks great.<br>
<br>
We decided to ask the KDE VDG (visual Design Group) what they think about<br>
the logo in KDE's forum (2), to have their feedback, and it looks like they<br>
love it too.<br>
<br>
My only concern was the scalability of the logo for an icon, but I saw on<br>
the forum that you are working on an icon version, so that's perfect.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks for your work!<br>
<br>
On the website topic, there were many comments / ideas, we will need to<br>
discuss it further, also find someone willing to implement the ideas and<br>
decide between keeping Drupal or switching to a static site generator..<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
Jean-Baptiste Mardelle<br>
