           Summary: please improve the bootsplash artwork
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ubuntu-artwork

Compare Ubuntu's bootsplash artwork -
http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=469&slide=2 - with the
bootsplash  artwork in SUSE Linux 10 -
http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=464&slide=2 - you can't
see it very well on OSDir's screenshots, but on my PC the Ubuntu logo displayed
during the boot is rather pixelated (i.e. I can easily distinguish the pixels),
it doesn't look good. The mirror-effect on the logo, the simple loading bar and
the boring black background create an unattractive look as well. If you take a
look at the SUSE Linux bootsplash artwork, it looks very good and professional
with a lot of style, and their artwork doesn't look pixelated.

I already heard Ubuntu's artwork will be improved for Dapper Drake, but does
this include the bootsplash artwork? I hope so.
