I get your concerns, but If you check the wallpaper in 15.6 and 15.5 it's already using the "modernized Leap logo" which "luckily" also won in the survey. So far nobody complained about wallpaper and I feel that the wallpaper was accepted very well. So it's really about finishing what's already halfway done. I'm not touching any other graphics. https://github.com/openSUSE/branding/blob/leap-15.5/raw-theme-drop/desktop-1... https://github.com/openSUSE/distribution-logos/tree/main/Leap (so all I need to do is just to submit it here).

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.

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
