I love "better puzzle"!! cool. Louis

Created attachment 21841 [details] resized and compressed, ready for HP (15.9kB)
nicubunu: you rock again!
Hi uploaded http://www.openoffice.org/index-splashscreen.html, which I shall use. The full image, http://www.openoffice.org/index-splashscreen-png.html, is lovely. but alas too big. Nicu, these are really great. thanks Louis
louis: indeed the second one is big both as file size and as dimensions. as a guideline: what is an acceptable maximum filesize for an image to be included on the homepage? maybe the JPG version can be saved with less compression, is a bit blurred
it depends. With the new page, I'd ask for you to be the judge. But we want things preferentially to stay under 40KB. I would find 40 KB acceptable for this image now--if it makes the jpg less blurred. The size could be a little larger, but not too much. louis
Created attachment 21850 [details] this should look sharper

well, you know better than I here; you are the expert. Of course, smaller is better. cheers Louis
nicu, once again, my praises. I also think, seriously, that this is a brilliant idea for a more general OOo graphic :-)
guess I'll keep this open; we can use it for the revised one. Louis
Created attachment 21954 [details] a more general graphic.... let's explore this idea further
Created attachment 21955 [details] and the same image but this time 'put in perspective'
Love the puzzle... not the perspectival one, which gave me vertigo. only point is: hard to see it says OpenOffice.org. Is it possible to put in, in say translucent blue/black (our colors/font) OpenOffice.org? louis
Created attachment 21987 [details] with translucent OOo logo
Created attachment 21988 [details] and following my tradition, an alternative one
thanks, nicu. closing. for new homepage screens, let's file a new issue. louis
