While Scott has commented in the duplicate bug that the images "are what
they are", I seriously doubt that the design team realized the
implication that 16-color images for VGA framebuffer also implied a
640x480 display. While I don't think it's realistic to fix this for the
final release, I do think the "ugly" boot splash on VGA fb is not
actually what the design team intended, and that we should probably get
these scaled down by a factor of 1.6 (i.e., have them display equivalent
in size to a 1024x768 display).
But scaling the images won't affect the size of the text, so the
experience would still be inconsistent. So I believe this should be
postponed to maverick, and preferably until after we have some way to
pass variables to our scripts from the theme definition so we don't have
to keep patching all the per-flavor themes.
