murbert Why not use the official Solus logo?

At first that was the idea, but the more I looked at it the less it made perspective sense. So I simplified the logo making it truly look like boat from the side and recreated the two pieces that are on the logo as a sail.

RobertTVarga Would you make colour versions?

Well, I could but don't see the reason to. There is svg file included. You can edit it yourself under 1 minute and export to whatever size you want. It is really easy, you just select the wanted object and right click the colours on the bottom panel to choose the outline or fill colour. Then you open the file menu, select export to PNG and choose the resolution and filename. Everything in the svg was created as object so you can freely choose the colours yourself easy way.

DasJott Also darkness and default color scheme.

Both of them are great. So I stole them both on my device. Currently using the forest one because I felt something was off when the first was used as wallpaper (It looks great and is definitely the closest to my vision, but... idk)

EDIT: I just corrected the quotes, sorry.

          [deleted] Thank you 🙂 I made them to be stolen 😉
          Maybe at any point you can describe what could be improved on the lake one 🙂

          Will make some from time to time. I love fiddling with Gimp.

              I've stolen the Forrest one and made it my login screen 🙂 Great work!

              DasJott They are both awesome. I think the lake one is a little 'off' in the sense that the boat does not see as integrated in the picture as the one in the forest. I stole the forest one. Thank you!

                  jppelt you're right and I was also not overly satisfied with it. Will try to correct that anytime soon 🙂

                    DasJott It does fit more organically. What are you using, GIMP?

                      Hey, DasJott!
                      I really like your latest version of the SOLUS boat on that dark lake!
                      Would you like re-shaping the sail of your boat a little so that it looks more like the original sail, with that swing up to the tip of the mast?
                      The way it looks at the moment is nice but very stylised and slightly too rectangular, so I wondered if we could get a sail with something like the original shape.
                      Keep at it, it's nice work you're doing!

                          Thank you very much for your kind words! 😊
                          I totaly agree by looking at other pictures/logos that the one I used looks quite edgy.
                          Didn't notice before that there is a nicer looking logo around, like here in the forum. Just searched for logos on Google 😬 ...and seem to have gotten an old one.
                          I will grab a newer looking one and launch that into water, soon 😁

                            Finally I found the time to do another dark sea mountain wallpaper including a newer Solus ship.
                            Let me know, what you think 🙂
