Nice. Maybe just color the logo background with the same
lightblue color of the site ? And please also add
a link to the SDL merchendise stuff at:

www.cafepress.com/libsdl

Thank you, and great work.
With the new logo and website,
libSDL has a great new look.

the site looks nice, but the sdl logo could be integrated better. (eg no
white background, using it in the top left corner)

and it seems like some pages don’t use the same font.
(the faq section for example)

Great suggestion. Check out the new “About” section.

Yes, some of the other pages are still under construction.

Thanks!

It should of course be a properly alpha’d PNG, not a horrible evil GIF.

22,490 SDL_logo.gif
15,668 SDL_logo.png

… and that’s without taking alpha into consideration.

Also, on a tangent, the german site lists a GIF as being PNG. I’m not sure if it’s the description or the file that’s in error, I would hope it’s the file:

"official SDL logo-button (SDL powered) as PNG with 128x64 pixel (download)"

I think that is my fault. I also think this origianl file of Arne
war really a gif. I have some new logo stuff and will update/convert
that all.
