logo, bootsplash upload from me #1502

Bing would really love to be cited with a date and the prompt leading to the generated image that was then modified ( and for which you would then be considered author by CC BY 4.0 which is compatible with GPL here) . Will need to trace back that prompt and date and commit should reflect that. Unfortunately there is a bug in image creator for the moment not permitting me to go back with that information but will provide as soon as that bug is resolved. @d-wid I love your work! |

Background-binary-2 is my preference. |

I like background-binary-2.jpg too. |
I feel the "matrix code" effect gives the logo some needed visual softness. The sharp white version being too harsh to blink onto the screen. Just my opinion, mind. |
|
Smoothed out the bi/tricolour version of the bootsplash and I think it looks good with some vignette effect now. Removed some of the shadow on the nose in the matrix binary-2 version. I think it's more readily recognisable as a pair of faces (or heads) that way.

Would it be an idea to also frame the QR-code in a matching colour frame of sorts? Might round it out a little.
|
For now I think something like this might be better, but you can play around with the xcf yourself if you want and see what sticks. |

@d-wid would be interested into making this go forward. In previous comments, I said I would prefer not having a lot of binaries in git, which means limiting inclusion/removal of binary content that is added/removed over time, which otherwise is kept in git history. I would go forward and squash those commits so only kept inclusions are part of git history, meaning that we would be co-author on your last commit here and some would follow as part of another PR based on this one. By doing another PR based on this work, I would cite as best as I could bing you and thrilleratplay, move the bootsplash and logos under branding/heads and modify all coreboot configs to point to the symlink of currently chosen bootpslash. Note that rebranding for boards would need to change symlink to point to re-branding bootsplash for board forks, which branding could either be put upstream or in downstream forks(preferred), which ideally should all be about rebranding anyway. Same would apply for people building locally. Changing symlink to point to desired bootsplash is all that should be done. This would resolve #1468 at the same time. Oppositions? |

Now that I've got some time I took #1451 and did some stuff on GIMP and (automatically!) traced it with Inkscape to produce imo a serviceable svg.
Also with a PR I can finally upload the xcf used to create the bootsplash, like I said here it is based on this xcf @Thrilleratplay uploaded.
I hope none if this so far is problematic licence-wise (I'm suspicious though uninformed about the idea of taking something from a presumably proprietary AI generator and re-releasing it under a free licence)
