Hi Andreas,

I like the color treatment, I like the watermark, the screenshot is
something we probably do want on the splash, but the layout feels
busy.  

The reflection is nice, but perhaps used so often that it became a cheap
aid. Don't know.

How about a layout like this?

Obviously the screenshot would be a proper screenshot crop, but I don't
have one handy and your SVG didn't have the bitmap inline.

My suggestion for a slogan would be - 'Beautifully obvious'.

cheers
