I thought I was going to get criticism for the dull and foggy color scheme and intense white levels of my background...

Here is a redone version with much richer coloration: http://i49.tinypic.com/291cpq0.jpg

"We are going to be a lot more limited with the artwork than we used to
be, as the upstream changes in gdm removed the theme support. We can
just change the gtk/icon theme and the background image. I like the
texture -not that much the colors- in your background image."

Why would they remove theme support!?

"The limitations also affect usplash, with the new startup system we
have progress bar no more. Also, we discovered usplash is not very
optimized, so the smallest the image the better it works. That is the
reason Ubuntu uses just a pulsating icon now, and we will follow them."

You can't honestly tell me that a fast, modern computer in 2010 is going to choke on an image, can you? Is it really now impossible to include a load bar, or is it simply a matter of changing some source code around?

To restate the question: why have recent updates elected to remove functionality, breaking lots of beloved hard work of many contributors on gnome-look.org and elsewhere? Tell me the reason behind it, so that I may feel like a naive stupid.
