[ubuntu-art] Fwd: Re: Pretty System Consoles

[Quim Calpe]

I did this proposal: http://www.kalpe.com/ubuntu/usplash.gif

If someone finds it interesting, It uses actually very few colors, but I 
guess these aren't the colors of the palette, I don't have the 
knowledge, maybe a more experienced user could help-me?

Thanks
