Created attachment 240487 [details] welcome screen needs new "logo" I'll attach picture of one of the current pages ... I think there are several "themes", though ... not sure if same image is used in all of them? As far as I can see, the _main_ image to change is /org.eclipse.sdk/intro-eclipse.png which is 106x60 image with transparent background. In the attached welcome screen, I've circled in red what I _think_ is the intro-eclipse.png ... but, having trouble finding it in "code".
Created attachment 240500 [details] What's New - Screenshot Also, we have the old Eclipse icon for "Eclipse Platform" in the "What's New" and "Migrate" sections of Welcome page. See attached screenshot.

See attached screenshot. Those are the relevant icons for that: /org.eclipse.platform/images/topiclabel/wn_eclplatform48_hov.gif /org.eclipse.platform/images/topiclabel/wn_eclplatform48.gif

Created attachment 242442 [details] Welcome screen: before and after This screen shot shows my plan for replacing the logo on the "welcome screen" -- showing "current" and "Luna" comparison. I simply got one of the official logos from www.eclipse.org/artwork and scaled it down, made it transparent and positioned it "manually" so it'd show at the right position. I hadd original thought its background should change, for a consistent, fresh look, but a) I think it looks mostly ok, as it is, and b) changing the background is kind of complicated. Just to document it, that banner background is created by drawing hundreds of jpeg files 60 pixels high, and 1 pixel wide in org.eclipse.ui.intro.universal in the "slate" theme, in root.css #root { background-image : url("../graphics/rootpage/root_banner.jpg"); background-position : top left; background-repeat : repeat-x; } I experimented with that, but then the "go to desktop" button would also have to be changed, since it's a jpg, with a background that matches "root_banner.jpg" ... so ... will leave for improvements in future. = = = = = TODO: we may want to add something to "about.html" file, that mentions the logo is trademarked by Eclipse Foundation and to see http://www.eclipse.org/logotm just so it doesn't appear to be part of the normal EPL?

See attached screenshot. > > Those are the relevant icons for that: > > /org.eclipse.platform/images/topiclabel/wn_eclplatform48_hov.gif > /org.eclipse.platform/images/topiclabel/wn_eclplatform48.gif I won't give screen shots for this part of the fix, but will say I plan to use "png" files, with transparent backgrounds, instead of GIF files (the current ones have a sort of funky shaped bit of "white back ground" so background would be hard/impossible to change ... (which these two PNG files won't fix ... but, seems that's the correct direction). And ... I'm not sure if the "rules" are documented somewhere, but, by observation I just inferred following: - Even though they are "48x48" icons, the actual image is smaller than most 48x48 icons ... approximate 1/2 or 2/3rds as large? - The "hover effect" in this case appears to be achieved by making the "hov" icons 2 or 3 pixels smaller ... from the upper left, leaving the baseline of lower right the same. And .. it appears several places mistakenly used same icon for both "hover" and "not hover" ... this matches some observations before I made any changes ... but ... deserves some review or testing to make sure it all works and there's not some "secret sauce" to using the same name. = = = = Now ... to get all this checked in before 8 AM build :/

And, in case you are wondering ... I check the "build.properties" and appears everything should still be exported correctly since the whole directories are specified there images/ and intro/
