Crediting Dear ImGui in an application... #4009

Just an easy one (I think) Dear ImGUI experience has been a lot better than my wildest dreams (and my dreams can be quite wild!!!) so when I eventually release the project I'm working on I'd like to give some credit.

As an example my editor application uses FFMPEG underneath so I have a logo for it etc in the about screen.

My project uses a few 3rd party libraries now (load png, tga, dds... threading... and .zip support) so in the end would credit each library.

Is there a preferred/any logo for Dear ImGui? The one below is about the only one I could find. image

Hello,

We currently don't have a very official logo, but this year started to sneakily enable a visual that would appear as preview of external social media links. If you really fancy using visuals you can use this:

I haven't used it very much as I wasn't happy with the font I used and wanted it to be handdrawn like the background, but haven't got around to get it done. (Art courtesy of my partner http://www.albanekim.com). I'll see if I can get this finished :)

Same as #240

Hey, I am planning on using a custom made logo for ImGui. I also want to share it if anyone else would like to use it and I am providing it without any license (CC0).

Dear ImGui Dear ImGui Colored Dear ImGui White

I am also attaching the svg files: other.zip

It seems odd to be inventing a logo for a project that's not yours. Why not using the logo I provided?

export-1_1_697px

export-github_1280x640

Hey, I didn't want to offend you. The logo provided cannot be used since I need a small version to credit the library on top of another picture and not on a splash screen. I would gladly use the one you showed on social media or blog posts though.

If you don't like them I can delete the comment and use them only for myself. I just wanted to share.

I would gladly use the one you showed on social media or blog posts though.

Not sure what you are referring to. Feel free to resize/crop the above if useful.

I'm not too fussed about it but found it quite unusual to be creating your own logo.

I realize there is a need and may put work at finishing the above in variety of formats.

object71 commented 10 months ago

I would love to see other formats of your logo. <3

I don't think it is uncommon for people to create their own renditions of a logo.

object71 commented 10 months ago

Actually I might use your official version if you say it is okay to crop/resize it to fit my needs.
