n�4 for me! Razz

Could you try to use another color for the ubuntu text? (maybe a very dark green instead of black) To have less contrast.

Yes, this one is perfect for me! Razz

(but that's my personal opinion of course)

Yeah! Great work!

Maybe you could just change the font for "muslim editition" and the color of "ME"...and a little less of outer glow effect for the same letters.

Not meant to be too picky,...it's really a great work,...

how about moving Bismillah to the top and aligning all of it vertically in the center.also, i think the font for Bismillah and Allah is a bit unclear (kind of blurred).

hi,

Bismillah and Allah texts vector graphic. "Allah" text a bit unclear because it have shadow.

i correcting this proposal.

i will release coming soon.. Smile

CHANGES:

- Shadow removed (for "Allah" text)

- color changed (for "me" text)

- some brightness (for "muslim edition")

- size increased (for "Bismillah")

Note: i need to arabic fonts (for "Allah and Bismillah") and its qwerty keyboard spelling

sample: "Bismillah" (arabic text) ----->> ???????? (qwerty keyboard+arabic font)

in this way, i can convert vector "Allah and Bismillah" to text

and last thing: what do you think about gdm splash size?

??? x ??? pixel Smile

ok?

MashaAllah looking cool now but i was wondering that 'ME' is a short hand for 'Muslim Edition' so why do we have to include both of them on the splash?I think we should either have 'ME' or 'Muslim Edition' on it, not both.Also can you please align all of the text vertically in the center, it seems to be offset from center towards the top.Keep up the good work.

ubuntume and "muslim edition" on same splash because me=muslim edition (ubuntume not enough famous, people not know "ubuntume")

Here is a quick test I've done (I've rebuild UbuntuME with your .png):

The notification area and the logo are a little too close.

I can change the background color (here black). What color do you suggest me to use? (perhaps it depends on the wallpaper we'll use to have a smooth transition between the splash and the desktop)

oh ok.this brings me to one more point.the start up screen (before login screen), which shows the progress of ubuntu loading, usually has a black background.our logo will also appear there.the logo is transparent inside (circle with text 'Allah') and 'Allah' is written in black.this will disappear on black background.either we can make the inner circle opaque with a color or make the background of the startup screen of some other color or maybe change the color of text 'Allah'.

It is another .png image (that is special because it's a 256 indexed colors with some special indexes)
