Hi all,
For everyone creating an usplash theme, be aware of the following
resolution. This list *should* be the final list.
These theme variants *have to* be present:
640x480, 16 colors, scaled to 640x400
640x480, 256 colors
Optional:
800x600
1024x768
1365x768, scaled to 1024x768
All 256

Sure you can! The fancy-progressbar-themes are responsible for drawing
the themes themselves. Something like this should

Please no, a wiki isn't a discussion medium -- which is a good thing for
artwork.

Hello artists,
In the usplash patches I'm working on it's possibe to combine several
images to get e.g. a nice progressbar or a radar effect. However, these
images all must use the same palette.
How on earth do I extract a palette from a 256-color image with the gimp
and how do I make sure an

Sounds easier than applying palettes to pics

A request I hear often is to have a gdm theme with face browser. Such a

Thanks in advance,

Hi all,
Please have a look at

such an application would be useful to you. Currently it can open
usplash .so files, display them and change paameters. What I have
