Hi,

I was wondering how we could go about adding our logo to the "About Eclipse IDE" popup (see attached image) when the user installs our product? As in to the list of products already there.

Thanks.

Which logo do you mean? The big one in the main box or one of the smaller ones below that? The big one comes from the plugin.xml that registers the product via <extension id="product" point="org.eclipse.core.runtime.products">. The smaller ones come from each feature's branding plugin. The feature's provider name must be a unique name, i.e., the one shown in the hover and the branding plugin (implicitly a plugin with the same ID as the feature or explicitly mentioned in the feature.xml), specifies the image via the about.ini via the featureImage.

Great, thanks. I found this, this and this to be useful too. A useful illustration can also be found here, under the "Feature branding identifies your contributions at run time" section.
