[Bug 44339] Re: Regression in usplash artwork

[Viper550]

To Paul:
Thanks for the excellent comments. 

If you wonder, my artwork was actually inspired by the current 0.1
artwork, but was redone in the same style and also looks way cleaner!
They were actually pretty easy to make; I just used Alpha to Selection
on the current Ubuntu High-Res PNG, filled it with a gradient of 2 close
colors, made a new layer (keeping the selection), using the Subtract
Selection tool to remove the bottom half of the fill, then filled it
with white. Then,  I fooled around with the transparency of that layer
and it was done!

The design doesn't go far away from the current one because I loved the
current artwork, but Dapper is got tons of new artwork designs, so the
splash should be redone to show off this slick new image, and the fact
that Brown is no more! I don't even think a recoloring of the current
one is enough pour moi!
