BOOYAH! A WINNER IS US! YATTA! Now, all it needs is updated artwork for
Dapper that is similar to the current one (hint hint, my works maybe),
and we'll be all set!

The minimalistic theme looks amazing. I think that should be the
default as well, maybe with a message saying "Press CTRL-ALT-F# to see
details" or something like that.
If not that, the old one should be brought back; the new one looks
terrible IMO.

I also hate the current artwork, and I'm also voicing my support behind

I doubt we could still make one of the new propositions to be included
in Dapper. It would require that there's a vote on which one we should
use, and that's difficult. Consensus is difficult to achieve.
I do believe that it's possible to simply revert this graphic change to
the way it was before,

I agree with all the above. New artwork is both tacky and depressing.

What I did here was take your 640x400 image, bump the canvass size (ie:
no rescaling) to 640x480, then take THAT and rescale the image to
640x400. That gives you the right "shapes" for everything, so it's at
the correct aspect ratio.

That's been drawn at 640x400, but using a 4:3 aspect ratio. As a result,
it'll look distorted if displayed in usplash. I'm afraid it's quite
awkward to produce 640x400 artwork that's the right aspect ratio...

Bad choice.
1) The Ubuntu logo comes out quite bad.
2) The messages are sometimes unreadible, especially on a TFT with a little bit
of surrounding light.
3) The progressbar colors are a bad choice, a little bit of light can make the
progressbar useless, for colorblind people I think it is a nigh

Aside from the new splash (which I also don't like over the old), the

I agree. The old one was way better, and actually fit in with the color
scheme. I don't see why it was changed, actually. If anything, the old
usplash only needed the text or progress bar to be slightly more orange
- to fit in with the Dapper desktop.

I couldn't agree more with all this, especially with the first comment

In fact, I myself thought there had been something wrong when after

I also prefer the previous one... I liked the effect of reflection and
its colour. Nevertheless, I'm not against the fact we try to change it.
But the problem with the actual one is its quality. More over it's not
centered.

As many people, I'd prefer the first one.

I'm going to have to throw my name in on this one; the old artwork
wasn't great, but it was at least decent.
This new stuff looks like a 14-year old got ahold of photoshop in 1997
and picked up the eye candy filters. Blech!
