 Yes, you could do that. Or, if the PNG is very large in size, convert
 it to JPEG (but with good quality), and then put both in Git Master,
 so that we still have the original file available.

 Converted to JPEG

 I suppose I also add Tomasz to the contributors/thanks to list as
 splash screen artist right?

 As Nightrose suggested, this will be done after the tagging so as not
 to cause i18n issues.

Nikhil, could you please put the original PNG image in Git Master too?

It's good to have access to the original. Also, I would like to resize
it a bit, the image is very huge.

 Hey Amarok Team,

 Our release of Amarok 2.4 is nearing, and I guess we should choose a
 new splash screen. We still have leftovers from the last contest we
 did, the links are in the comments of this article:

 http://amarok.kde.org/blog/archives/1164-Kraut-Sourcing.html


 I would suggest, let's all just pick our favorites, and then we can
 see what people like best? No need for starting some huge official
 voting, unless we can't really get a consensus on one image.

 Which one do you like best?

 Reminder:

 Release is getting closer, and we should really place a new splash in
 Git Master now. Looking over the replies to this thread, there seems
 to be a consensus that this image is well suited:

 The one on the top-left here: http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/7898/prv3.png

 If no-one objects, can we please contact the author (I think it's the
 same guy who made the splash for 2.3.0 or so), get the original PNG,
 and put it in Git Master? Volunteers welcome, myself I am still on
 travels.


I have the original splash. Its a PNG, the earlier was a JPG, so is
that an issue
or can I modify App.cpp to simply use a PNG?

+1, although I already see the users complaining that we do not have
visualisation and shouldn't advertise it in the splash screen...
