Quoting the ‘THEMES’ file in SLiM:
GENERAL CONCEPT
A SLiM theme essentially consists of:
- a background image (background.png or background.jpg)
- a panel image (panel.png or panel.jpg)
- input box(es) and messages and their placement
and properties (slim.theme)
The panel and background images can be a PNG or JPEG file.
The panel is blended into the background image,
taking care of alpha transparency.
I suppose the logo could go into the “panel image.” I’ll try that.
Felipe, feel free to commit the background as SVG in guix-artwork.git.
Thanks!
Ludo’.
