Workaround is to install KGrubEditor or QGRUBEditor.
Then set the image you want through the software.
Result: the image is displayed.
I have tried via the grub shell (see comment above mine)
Same results,no splashimage in grub
Also tried:
$cd /boot/grub
$sudo ln -s splashimages/debsplash.xpm.gz
Issue persists in Hardy.

Issue persists in Hardy. Package involved: grub-splashimages.
1. I renamed one of the files to splash.xpm.gz
2. Moved the file to /boot
3. Ran update-grub:

Does it work for you if remove the splashimage lines from /boot/grub/menu.lst,
symlink desired splashimage as /boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz and invoke update-grub ?
If you have a separate /boot partition, then the splashimage must be on the
same partition.

Well if anyone cares actually :)... I'd like to mention, that this is
still an issue in Feisty Fawn release of Kubuntu. I've checked it just
recently and it causes exactly the same problems it does before

1 week is hardly enough time, go after the 6 month and greater issues
please. This is a valid issue. Also note that the images are in the
.xpm.gz format. You shouldn't have to do anytype of work around for
these, and there should be an easier way for a user to set these up.
** Changed in:
Note: Grub expects the filename in the format .xpm.gz
Once you have your .xpm file (from ImageMagick), gzip it.
Lastly, make sure your grub path to the file is correct. From the grub prompt,
you can actually browse display the file images.
root (hd0,6)
splashimage /boot/grub/myfile.xpm.gz

Shade, only assign it to yourself if you are working on creating a patch
for it. I moved it back to nobody, as this will get the developers to
look at it. If you are working on a patch, then by all means, go ahead
and assign yourself back to it. Thanks!!!

You should attach the image you're using.
Grub will fail to display the image correctly unless it's in the right
.xpm format. ImageMagick can create the file for you.

Another thing to try would be installing package 'grub-splashimages'
If these images work, the problem's not with grub, but your image file.
