Based on the pre-release website, I got the impression that the Maxwell logo was going to change (2 dots, instead of 1). That doesn't seem to have happened. Just curious if there's a story behind that or if perhaps it was just a misconception I, and others, had.

Help! I've lost my dot!

I think they decided it was just for the press release and previews.

Maybe it'll be fixed in 2.0.1.1?

Hi!

The logo with two dots was only for specific version 2 related actions and communications, such as the version 2 announcements page, etc. It's not going to be the permanent new logo - we'll stick with one dot only. As many of you pointed out in the beginning: what would we do for Maxwell Render v3? And for v10? Could get out of hand

Cheers,

Nicole

I was looking forward to the insanity of such a thing myself (I'm imagining threads speculating, "where will they put the dot next!!!" or maybe a contest to determine where the next dot goes).

Of course if, like 3ds Max, you changed from ver. 9 to, say, Maxwell 2010, THAT might get a little ridiculous.

Flag of EU has still 12 stars. US flag has 50. If Maxwell should change logo with every new version, the problem will be not 10 dot as Nicole wrote, but 1.7.1 or 2.0.1 dot
