Background image and Fedora logo not going well together

[Christian Schaller]

Hi,
Just noticed that with the current F26 background image the Fedora logo is invisible since
we use the white Fedora logo and the bottom right corner of the background image is also
white. We should change the background image so we got something visible :)

I thought we had a fix in for this in the beta. What version are you
looking at?

I did a fresh install of the alpha today and then dnf update to get up to date 
with latest packages. So hopefully I should be at latest F26 package set.

I'm running the latest stable packages and these changes are *not* present.
(Also, I don't see any recent builds of fedora-logos or
gnome-shell-extension-background-logo in Koji at all.)

If this needs to be in Beta, someone needs to file a BZ and propose it as a
Freeze Exception.

I don't have an opinion on whether it needs to be in the Beta, but I can
point to the existing report at:

We talked about this issue in the design team meeting this morning. Sam 
has a new version of the logo SVG for you, I'll post it to the BZ ticket 
(it should be on the pagure by now).

It turns out that the wallpapers in the package that was built May 09 
are not the correct ones, I am not sure what happened - they do not 
match what the XCF source generates which is what we'd anticipated would 
end up in the beta. Sam and I went through them and made some calls on 
what versions would look best, and he is now working on re-exporting 
them now with some fixes, having them available in the next few hours.

We tested all of the various incarnations of the wallpaper (the static 
and animated variants) and the version of the logo he's put on the 
pagure ticket today works well with all of them.

I don't know that this is so urgent as to get into beta now so I don't 
think it'd really qualify as a blocker but if others think it should 
we'll try to get the fix available ASAP just in case. I do apologize 
that this wasn't resolved in time for beta before the freeze. :(

To be clear, there is no blocker criterion at Beta for the wallpaper, so this
will not be a blocker. That said, if it's ready in time, it's probably worth
proposing as a Freeze Exception since it's very low-risk to pull it in and
improved visual experience is always a plus.

That's a known issue:
https://pagure.io/design/issue/510

I'll update the extension setting when the design team provides me with a
dark variant of the text-only logo (or asks for a switch to the logo-text
variant of course)
