I was thinking of maybe using the artwork from the preview edition,
would that cause Canonical a problem? If not could someone say where
the relevant images are stored on the CD.
I know for a fact that the virtually naked people on the splash screen
will cause a real problem for one of the groups I am involved with -
Single Parents Action Network.
Keep up the sterling work,
