Actually if you could backburner this and instead provide more unpolished options, I believe it would be more productive. Remember, let's try to keep at 'proposing'. Separate colour palette, backing forms, and compositional elements into their respective categories. It makes it easier to 'mix and match' directions. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art

I prefer the 2nd (logo and letters look really cool), but wonder how something in between - similar to the 2nd splash but using the 1st background - would look... I second this opinion. Progress bar is more intuitive, more telling and more expected by user than blinking circles.

Hi all, Here are two login splashes I've designed for xubuntu edgy. They are gif animations. As you know, one of the most important consideration when creating any kind of artworks for xubuntu is to be small in file size.
