Martin Brooks Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Hello Affinity I like your apps a lot, but every time I open Photo I am struck by the female face image of the splash screen. In this day and age I am surprised that you would go with such a sexist splash screen. It makes me want to not open the app. As I started hunting around for a way to delete this app resource, it occurred to me that I should air my opinion, so here it is.

emmrecs01 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Which version of APh are you running? I just opened the latest release (1.6.5.123) and Beta (1.7.0.240) on Windows and both feature a splash screen whose initial panel shows a male face!! Perhaps that should be described as sexist?? I'm sorry, but I think this is very much a "red herring".

Staff Chris B Posted February 14, 2019 Staff Share Posted February 14, 2019 @emmrecs01 - Martin is referring to the initial screen that appears when you first run the app up. This has now changed to a waterfall in the current beta.
