I couldn't agree more with all this, especially with the first comment
posted by Emmanuel Touzery.

In fact, I myself thought there had been something wrong when after
upgrading usplash I saw the new artwork on shutdown. I had to restart
again to make sure that that really was the new artwork.

>What happened to the brown "human" colours? Now I can't even see the
"OK"s at >the right side of the boot progress messages.

Exactly. Why did we go to *grey* "human" colours?

And why did the artwork change 3 weeks before release? Why not create a
thread in the forums in the early stage of development to get users to
throw in their ideas, for example?

I think the best option would be to make usplash easily themable so the
user can choose between console font colour and logo. I realise there
probably won't be time to implement this in Dapper, but it is just a
thought for the future.

I cannot add more to this discussion. I think everything I was thinking
has already been said by other users already.

And again, this is not a rant. We fully appreciate the developer's work.
It is because we so much like this distro that we want it to be as good
as "humanly" possible.

As a side issue, my Breezy usplash artwork used to look better than the
one in Dapper (was the screen mode changed or something in Dapper?)
before 0.2. I thought this was just a minor issue and I did not report
it. But now, the change from 0.1 to 0.2 is something else...

Thanks.
