The goal of CentOS is to change the minimum amount of source code possible ... so we didn't change it. We did get the logo working on the login screen with the latest updates. If someone *WANTS* to figure out how to change the theme using the git.centos.org source code, and if they recommend the changes via patches using the git am format on the CentOS Devel mailing list, we will certainly discuss those possible changes. Remember, we have only 3 people doing CentOS Linux distro related things .. and of the 3, only 1 (me) is full time maintaining of distro packages.

I'll agree that the boot splash change from EL6 to EL7 differs a lot. We're of differing opinion ... I see the boot splash "once every blue moon" so it doesn't bother me. It's certainly more modern looking in EL7, though it does lack the indicator "ring" that shows granular boot progress. You can get/create and set different boot splash themes. Maybe it's possible for you (or potentially someone already created it?) a theme that gives you the "attractiveness" you desire. http://www.tejasbarot.com/2009/01/19/enable-graphical-boot-with-plymouth/ http://theurbanpenguin.com/wp/?p=3227 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4eiK7chQTo -- ---~~.~~--- Mike // SilverTip257 // ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] What has happened to the CentOS logo?
Has the CentOS logo disappeared from CentOS-7? I thought the logo in CentOS-6 was very pleasant. Also I liked the way in which one increasing circle inside another showed how the boot was progressing. The dots going round and round in Microsoft fashion in CentOS-7 is a retrograde step, I think.
