Really cool guide @agryson! Congratulations

About the FreeCAD logo redesign, I have sometimes played with the idea, I even have some logo mock-ups....
Now my spare time is very small but as you probably see on other threads in still active and continue to participate and upload icon for my alternative icons theme...
Long in short, of course it would be a pleasure to try and play with some ideas in order to update the FreeCAD logo in to something more "modern" and kind of pro ;)

Bravo!
1 nit to pick: You have to download and wade through all the artwork to get to the guidelines. Maybe a separate page just for guidelines?

A separate page would be nice, it takes quite a while to load.
Some of the template's images look a bit garbled, the letters are far too big, e.g. https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/images/ ... SO7200.svg. If you can't see it, I can upload a screenshot.

+1, IIRC the Artwork page was only intended to be a repository.

That artwork page is a good candidate for cleanup and separation into several pages grouped by category, if anyone sees this and has a bit of time.

I totally agree. But I think the discussion would be better in the wiki sub forum since we're going to have lots of details about inbound links and translations and stuff.

Honestly, I wanted to have just a sprite sheet for each workbench that gets auto generated in a post receive hook when icons have changed. This one by one thing seems overkill. And a nice big zip of all the icons as a pack.
