Package: debian-installer
Severity: wishlist
Tags: d-i
I've recently tried the "graphical install" option of both Squeeze's and
Wheezy's netinst installation images,
and to my dismay, Debian Installer shows some childish and unprofessional
images of rockets and gallaxies,
probably intended as a figurative but fallacious illustration of the "The
Universal Operating System" motto.
Aesthetics aside, I'm tempted to consider this a minor bug instead of a
whishlist, as it is probably a
"cosmetic mistake" to depict Debian's intent to be "universal" (useful for all
users and on all fields)
with a cartoonish drawing of the Universe.
Nothing calls for graphically representing Debian's universality, especially in
this crude, ugly, far from
subtle and equivocal way.
Please consider dropping entirely the rockets, stardustst, and gallaxies. Just
the Debian logo and a plain
background in a sober color will do.

Hi,
you are 1.5 years late to this old and boring "debate". And wheezy will get
new artwork anyway, thus closing.
cheers,
Holger
