New Logo

Why a new logo?

The current logo for QLC+ has been an iconic feature of QLC+ since 2013.

Why should it be changed now? For a long time, the only way to access QLC+ has been on a desktop environment or through a web browser. The new versions of QLC+ may soon be interacted with on mobile devices including phones, tablets or even in VR. QLC+ will always run on desktop but it's no longer bound by this platform.

QLC+ should be able to help you wherever and whenever you need it, which is why a modern identity is required to reflect this.

The new logo should be flat, simple and still keep the "Lightbulb" motif which has been a key aspect of the current design. The design should work on desktop, web and mobile devices.

Testing has revealed the need to change the scaling factor in the "About" page for V4.

I would suggest keeping the new PNG size as it looks perfect in the top toolbar.

What? No! Toolbar icons are scaled, about icon is not. Please stick to the original size (96px)
