Until you manage to get that wonky off-balance thing you prefer to be
accepted as the official logo, whether it is ugly or not is not
relevant. There is a procedure for changing established things. Your
method of just going ahead and changing things without asking is not
only rude but wrong. If you want to change things, you will have to go
through me first. If you have a problem with me, you have a problem
with changing things. So I suggest you consider your options.

It's a bloody orb with wisps (rings) around it. Complex my eye.
> The official Windows logo isn't used on the start button. A neater version

is used in the same way.

A "neater version". You mean the shadow? I have employed a similar way
to make the icon clear at 16x16:

As you can see, both with Windows and with ReactOS, it's practically
the same thing. I'm beginning to get the idea you are making arguments
up for the sake of having arguments in your offence.

It's as much a placeholder as the "original" Everaldo icons were.

Hi
The new logo se does not look like reactos any longer
it is to dark and pixel, the balas and constrast in the new
logo is bad, it does not match at all, and it look not prof
have made it. more like a childer. So please revert
the new logo and keep, the old one.

If u look in ros it does not match the constrast or
any think. A logo should not be pixel or constat
does not match. That is exacly in the new logo
u have done MF.

I know it is alot people reactos user and
devloper dislike the new logo.
if u do not revert it, (restore to the old one)
I will do it this weekend.

I better go back to coding so we can have REAL fights about kernel
