time for new Arena Gui

Post by oxymoron »

I use Arena interface with different engines. It's time for a new version. Mine is 3.5.1 and I'm kind of tired of it.

I wonder why Martin is only making new versions for Linux now.

Yes, a new version with a new icon. Of course it isn't really important but the current application icon is really... ugly. I had worked myself on a new icon for Arena. I sent the project using the contact form on the website, but never got any answer.

Here is my proposition, very close to the current icon, but a little prettier (at least I hope so).

I am thinking of implementing an new GUI like Arena based on Electron ( https://www.electronjs.org/ ).
