AboutScreen v1.4 entry - Creative Growth - wonderous plants grow when creativity is set free.
I love working with colours, simple shapes, and gradients to create the illusion of something rather complex. This design ended up with ~13,000 elements in a single file [for the about screen and the two extra layouts [web and welcome], countless clip groups, dozens of gradients, a LOT of path effects and blurs, and layer blend modes to give nice colour mixes.
...and Inkscape did not disappoint. In the ~8 hours it took to design [thanks to elements already created prior] I had no crashes and no major issues with the tool.

Simply beautiful. Thanks for sharing your talent.
@mrks9 Thanks, Marcos... It's been a rainy couple of days and I had nothing better to do :) After the Affinity acquisition I wanted to push Inkscape a little and see what kind of magic it can conjure. Somewhat surprisingly, it didn't crash on me once - juggling ~13,000 elements with a lot of blurs and gradients, clip groups, and layer blend modes to mix the colours nicely. I was impressed! ;)
Chris,
Just one change - if you could move your "text editable" group under "about" to the "Text (hidden layer)" layer.
Otherwise, everything looks good.
Kyle,
Done! ;)
Chris,
Thanks so much! We'll get this formally submitted.
Added font info to the description.
Thanks for the submission - your entry is now checked! Please do not make any further edits from now on. Good luck!
Chris, i know i'm keen to minimalistic details but boy! wtf!!!
A clean touch with the seamless match of your color pallets at every point, with a cool flow of the little grasses in the foreground and background, as well as the beautiful glow of your wish flowers! the 3d feel of the source... talk less of your gradients!!!
I Appreciate when an artist gets this deep to have the audience craving for more! 🌞
