Wouldn't it be better if everyone were to post an unscaled version of  
their usplash screens (that is, 640x400, without squishing to adhere  
to the stretching that will later occur in real usage) so that we can  
get a good view of how they would look after they're packaged?

I'm sure that the tech-savvy people will be able to squish the images  
to the correct proportions, and it's likely a good idea to keep them  
unsquished in the wikipage so that we can judge more easily.

Of course artists will probably want to see the squished versions  
before they're considered final, just in case there are any dithering  
problems.

P.S.: I recommend downloading the wikipage in case you need all the  
pictures. That's probably a lot easier than attaching all the images.
