Hey fellow chameleons, wont the chameleon stay as opensuse mascot? Just the logos for the distros are about to be steamlined. And so far I know the Tumbleweed and Leap logos are recognizable but I dont identify with them - I do with the chameleon. my 2 euro cents, Bernd Am 04.01.24 um 14:30 schrieb Axel Braun:

Leap already has a wallpaper including the newly elected logo, perhaps
we could scan for some other occurrences of the old logo. I see one
in "About system" in gnome-settings. I suspect that KDE will have a
similar placement.
I'm not sure if this is a good idea.
The logo survey had some serious flaws, most important: it did not
include our current logo, despite being submitted by someone. (And I'll
not even start with the detail that it wasn't automatically included.
Even I am not evil enough to come up with such an idea.)
The main reason why the logo discussion is currently quiet is that we
got a promise that there will be a membership vote where we can choose
between the current and the possible new logo.
However, that also means that geeko, our current logo is still our logo.
I have serious doubts that the majority of our members want a new logo,
therefore it might be a good idea not to replace our current logo until
we had the membership vote about it. (Unless someone is keen to possibly
revert several *-branding packages.)
agreed. Changing logos is about changing IDENTITY. why would we want to
do that. is our history not something to be proud of?
+1
You dont change an identity or brand just for the fun of it. Only if there is a certain reason, e.g. because it is burned or the scope of your business changes
I see neither of these reasons for openSUSE
