For the creation of the design, I was inspired by "Inkscape" and "Draw Freely" and took the words "ink" and "free" so that my drawing represents how a drop of ink that gets free from the rest of the ink when a liquid drips.
As one of the rules was that "It must load relatively fast", so I opted for a minimalist design based on circles that follow the golden ratio (1: 1.618) and placed all according a golden spiral.
For the colour, I made some variation and this dark grey was the better looking one.
Thanks for your comment, I'm glad you like my design.
- What about having some colour in the number and the ink drop at the bottom?
When I made the design I used different colors in several versions and the one I like the most was this in black and white. As the design is very simple, different colors as red, blue, pink, green... they don't fit well with the inkscape logo colors.
- What about making the dot of the version number being the ink drop?
The point of the version is already part of the ink drop, as you can see in the link, an ink drop can sometimes get separated from the rest of the ink and gets "free".
Great! Simple by shapes, simple by colors. But I would also vote for a drop of ink being a part of a version as Carles wrote. Now the dot is not vertically aligned, so it does not look like as a ink drop. Anyway it is my favourite splash screen and I will vote for this.
- The dot is not vertically aligned Now I understand, the point doesn't seem part of the fall because it is not aligned, I didn't realize that detail before :(

Can you share a bit more about what inspired you to come up with this design?
Hi Mihaela,

I think this is great! Such a minimalist but with a very clear concept.
