Neos 5.2 Login Wallpaper

Hello photographers in the Neos community,

The release of Neos 5.2 is getting closer. In good traditions we would like to reach out to the community for the new login-wallpaper.

Please send your image suggestions. Preferably images you took on your own.

These rules apply for the suggestions and the vote

  • We need royalty-free images and the licensing needs to be crystal clear.
  • Please submit a maximum of two pictures. (The first submitted two pictures per user will get into the vote)
  • We like to see the Neos community to vote about the wallpaper. Entitled to vote are all forum users which registered at least 2 months ago and have at least one post in the forum.

The following sentence of the Neos brand guide could help you choose an image:

The Neos imagery style is natural, friendly and a bit blue to match the Neos colors. Images create an authentic, natural impression in contrast to the very technical topic web content management. Artificially illuminated or colored environments do not correspond to this philosophy.

Note: If you want to test your suggestion there is a neos-login-bg-tester from @bwaidelich: http://wwwision.de/neos-bgtester/?img=yourPhotoUrl

The suggestions should be handed until wednesday 22nd April. The poll will be open until 27th of April.

Also see the relase date post for more information.

Sorry for the short timeframe, but I totally forgot putting up this post when creating the feature freeze post :bowing_man:

I’ve made all photos by myself, so licensing is no topic

The original picture is a panorama from greve strand, right at the harbour.

If this gets selected: Its name is “Sihlsee” (not Shilsee)

Photos taken by myself - so no worries about any copyright violations :slight_smile:

Those look awesome! Did you use a bit of “shop” to increase the dramaturgy of the photos? But still - blowing my mind, awesome landscapes! :slight_smile:

Hi Alexander

Yes - They passed photoshop - because both are multiple exposures to get a maximum of dynamic range - shooting in a glacier cave is quite difficult with the light :grin::+1:t2:

Great when you are able to improve images like that :slight_smile:
