</I>><i> I like this image very much also...
</I>><i> Some points:
</I>><i>
</I>><i> - I understand that having some corporate image in the login (kdm, gdm)
</I>><i> window is desired, but don't forget that gdm or kdm hide the center of
</I>><i> the screen.
</I>><i> - Continuity between boot steps is a pretty nice feature...
</I>><i> - I don't know if it happens to more people, but I find complex backgrounds
</I>><i> very distracting and hurt my eyes. If there are big letters or extreme
</I>><i> color changes in the background it annoys me. I could never put a portrait
</I>><i> of my children as background as many people do ;).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> This is just a quick'n'dirty mockup:
</I>><i> - plymouth: <A HREF="http://webdiis.unizar.es/~magallon/mga/mga1.jpg">http://webdiis.unizar.es/~magallon/mga/mga1.jpg</A>
</I>><i> - gdm: <A HREF="http://webdiis.unizar.es/~magallon/mga/mga2.jpg">http://webdiis.unizar.es/~magallon/mga/mga2.jpg</A>
</I>
Mmm, in this one the (cauldron,mageia-name) combo should be shifted left,
to align the 'm' with the border of the user list...and for the space
from both sides of the logo to screen border is the same.
><i> - desktop background: <A HREF="http://webdiis.unizar.es/~magallon/mga/mga3.jpg">http://webdiis.unizar.es/~magallon/mga/mga3.jpg</A>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> So you fade smoothly from plymouth to gdm to default BG on login.
