Hi all. I'm new to this mailing list and Ubuntu development in general.
I'm not even really a programmer, but rather a designer.
I wanted to discuss the usplash font with you. Namely, I think that the
font is pretty bad; it looks like a vector font that was not designed to
be shown without anti-aliasing. Maybe it's possible at this point in
development to suggest a different one?
A pixel font might work in this instance, since there is no
anti-aliasing and the font is being displayed at a small size. An
example of what I mean can be seen here:

Another thing that I'm wondering of: will usplash in future Ubuntu
releases discriminate between 4:3 and 16:10 screens? I've got a
widescreen which makes the usplash look stretched horizontally.
Anyway, I hope you get back to this message! Thanks.
Regards, Michiel
