Hi,
my motivation to discuss the current welcome screen is that too many
potential new users try to launch GRASS, do not get past that screen and
walk away ("too difficult"). Yes, and they will likely not read the manual
but just take another GIS.
This is a multiple times reported fact.

Definitely for 7.0.0.
A new major release must come with a new splash screen.

An informal poll of the grad students in my lab this morning. All said “Wow”.
Very professional!
I like the idea of GRASS morphing into a map of some kind. Also like Vaclav’s

Hi,
got this error message when running i.spectral.
btw, is there a plan to have i.spectral running in the GUI with the other
tools?

Here is a lot of material:

I thought about the historical map wrapped around a globe or perhaps redone in
3D. But it would probably be too small to make it clear what the viewer was
seeing.

This was the idea I had when talking about Cassini's globe but it
requires a bit of time to set up a correct layout.
Perhaps an idea with grass texture, let's se if I can do it this
morning.
Yann, did you have the time to test map morphing ?
