Hi all,
Hi K-J, Good to see another proposal.
starting with Dave's odg I made my own proposal [1] based on the cover
for Libo 5 docu.
I don't know how the strange squared application icons got into the GS5
cover, but I propose we stick to the official icons from the LO6 dev
start center:

Dave's proposal seems to break some branding rules [2]:
True! The original brief was to generate something along the lines of
the new LO6 branding (See Oliver's initial post starting this thread.).
I was trying to conform with background color the official LO6 splash
intro.png image authorized by Heiko Tietze.

- The "LibreOffice" text in the logo must be lined at the bottom with
the Document symbol.
- no other text in the logo
Not strictly true, but I am fine with whatever arrangement is chosen.
- "Dont' change the spacing of the elements"
Spacing was taken directly from the official LO6 branding artwork
authorized by Heiko Tietze.
I personnally don't like the green background in the new logo and even
would not repeat it at the bottom as a fat bar.
Agree100%. I would like to stick with the same header and footer
background colors used for previous guide covers.

I had started work on creating new background watermark cubes, but the
results were pretty awful. If we must have cubes, I suggest we go with
the ones in your proposal.
I will raise all matters relating to the covers at next Wednesday's docs
meeting, in the hope that we can reach a final agreement/decision.
Dave
