</I>>><i> The idea now, is to replace the background with the blue pattern AlexN used

</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Are there any complains about it or (better) ideas?

</I>>><i>

</I>>><i> or, a bit darker (my favorite):

</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> In action it looks like this:

</I>>><i> Regards,
</I>>><i> Thorsten
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> P.S.: In the future we must also have a closer look to the other DEs (GNOME,
</I>>><i> LXDE, XFCE, ...), which has been nearly forgotten so far.

</I>><i> TeaAge, I really *really* like the darker one you have made. The one
</I>><i> that looks like the installer and whatnot was getting me down just
</I>><i> working on it (you may have noticed).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Is everyone ok if we go for the dark one for dm splash and background?
</I>><i> If so, can you post the svg file and I can get the necessary bit
</I>><i> chopped up and added.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Either way, we can get the theme done and ready for release tomorrow
</I>><i> with only minor bug fixes left if any at all.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Gnome and LXDE havn't been forgotton, gnome just uses default bg and
</I>><i> spash was dropped by upstream. LXDE doesn't have a splash, and ahmad78
</I>><i> fixed the bg a while back.
</I>><i> Not sure on XFCE though, I haven't used it in years, will check to see
</I>><i> if it has a splash/needing anything done.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Cheers, Donald.
</I>><i>
</I>
Just installed XFCE, no splash and default bg is picked up fine, it
looks nice so all is good there. Thanks to however did the import.
