I have cherry-picked the duplication-removal into 3-6 branch, see
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?h=libreoffice-3-6&id=f342094d35c85a882db7b6ffe3f69ea9b3f8cc74

It made sense and Michael agreed. It put back the close button as well.


Hmm, I see some troubles with the new branding:

1. LO register extensions during the first start. It shows the names of
   the extensions in the splash screen under the progress bar. In the
   new splash screen, the text is black and almost invisible. In
   addition, it is shown on the very edge of the dialog, so it might be
   shrinked. It was too fast, so I was not able to notice all details.

2. Kendy told me one day that green did not look good on Windows
   because there were many things in blue. The new branding is really 
   green. Have you seen it on Windows?

3. The older white about dialog with green motives looked much more
   shiny than the new one. Well, it was too shiny in compare with the
   rest of the application, so I do not have any strong opinion here.


Best Regards,
Petr
