Splashy theme with new logo

Hi all,

I'm maintaining splashy in AUR. The current default theme uses still the old logo and I'd like to change this.
Has anybody already done somthing with the new logo or is willing to do it?

Cheers,
dongiovanni

Re: Splashy theme with new logo

I made a simple theme for splashy during the logo contest.  It doesn't feature the logo, just a simple black background with a progress bar that matches the logo color.

If you like, you can grab it here.

Re: Splashy theme with new logo

I would use it. Can I use this URL in the PKGBUILD or should I find another solution?

Hrmm, well, I admit I'm just getting the art files sorted out so I can't guarantee it'll be there in say 3 months, but for now go right ahead.

Re: Splashy theme with new logo

Hey there... Will splashy work during the shutdown, restart etc.. processes ? As for now, it doesn't.. I'm planning to do a GDM theme with the new logo but if you give me a how-to article for splashy theme, I can also make one for that too..

Re: Splashy theme with new logo

Splashy on shutdown and reboot isn't possible with current sysvinit and initscripts. It's a daemon, that is killed, when killall5 is executed. Debian and others use a patched killall5 command, that can omit processes. To support this feature the initscripts must also be patched and so on...

You can find documentation about splash themes here:

Re: Splashy theme with new logo

Hi. I've gave a quick go at the logo. You can get the png here:

Didn't know what colors to use so I tried to make the logo standout with a shadow. I'm sure someone else can do better. If anyone wants the svg to make improvement just email me as I don't have anywhere to host it..

Re: Splashy theme with new logo

I do not intend to release a logo'ed version of bootsplash/splashy themes because of the distortion that occurs at many resolutions.  To each their own though, so feel free to make'em any way you like.

Re: Splashy theme with new logo

I've made a splashy theme based on the SLiM theme by Gleidson.
I don't know if I am allowed to upload it to AUR, cause I used his/her graphics. I already made a PKGBUILD. If it's ok I will upload it.

Please try and upload it if you can get permission. At the moment I'm using a similar wallpaper slightly modified as a splashy theme. smile
