Hi i released   3D Arch Logos and the reaction was... that 2 peoples asked me to this:

It is amazing the effect that you've achieved with arch's logo. I was thinking some days ago if it would be possible to change the unpolished perspective of the official logo at arch's home page.

I wonder if you hadn't proposed this well proportioned, clear, and good angled image as the new official logo.

Arch is one of the best distros so you deserve double grats.

I hope to see more of your artwork soon. I drink to make other people interesting.

Ihih, somehow reminded me of Unreal Tournament.

Nice thing, nevertheless.

I think it's cool as desktop background, but a logo should be clean and simple. It should be printable in black'n'white for example.

Well, I'm in a similiar situation atm. I used cinema4D a few years ago but stopped mainly because of my switch to linux.
I didn't want to use c4d under wine (and was unable to start it with recent wine version anyway..) and was kind of scared by blenders UI.
After reading a few tutorials my fear is gone and I start to enjoy using blender
Try it out! You'll like it...

KISS without common sense catapults you instantly back to stone age if you aren't careful

Looks alright, but the current one is better. Also, one can't print yours on a shirt and keep decent quality.

Re: New Arch Linux Logo for HP?

I like it, it would work well for a background. Would you be interested in making it for a widescreen resolution like 1680x1050

Re: New Arch Linux Logo for HP?

It's nice for a wallpaper or stuff like that. I think that the current one is better as a distro logo because it's very clear and smooth, more like a symbol. But it's a very well made piece of artwork, it's actually my current wallpaper!

Re: New Arch Linux Logo for HP?

That is a sweet pic. I especially liked the reflection that you put on the bottom, that looks so amazing.
Its definitely going into my wallpapers folder.

Great one, thx for the widescreen one.

Just the shadow needs a little more work as it looks to "squared"

Very nice, thanks for the widescreen. I like dark backgrounds so this works for me.

Re: New Arch Linux Logo for HP?

Wow, the glass green one is awesome. I'm going to use that now.

edit: (ignore below, it was due to gqview's scaling)
Can you make it so the background is smooth instead of layers of yellow-red-green-blue?

Re: New Arch Linux Logo for HP?

"arch-glass-green.png" I mean

Can I make a suggestion though? imo, it gets a little too bright in the lower left corner, and the (main) arch logo should be in the center of the screen, as opposed to in the top half. (this makes it look less stretched too)
Well, that's what I found using it as a background at least...
