Could be cool with a non rectangular splash. A trick - or rather hack ;-)  to render such a splash without too much brain activity needed and leverage existing codebase, is to dynamically screendump the rectangular area were the splash would usually, and draw/copy in the non rectangular feature on top of that small screendump, then use the usual code to view the now rectangular splash which will look to the user as a non-rectangular splash (as long as he or she has not moved the window or got some popups in that second the whole thing takes). Maybe there is an easier way to make a non-rectangular splash ? (FX ? but that will include need of much bigger code change) This would allow to splash the logo only with some number inside referring to the release version. I know wild idea, but would look "different".

Yeah, the current one for sure doesn't go along the new logo. Is branding
part of this first release?

Hi all!

Now that we have a new logo and new website — a next logical step would
include a new splash screen.

I.e., parallel to the NetCAT program getting started and moving along well,
we could propose various splash screen designs, featuring our new logo and
maybe some of the styles and colors from the website, followed by a vote
thread?

Just an idea,

Gj
