5 Change Plymouth to a progress bar with a sparkling end (per request of some contributors and to keep a simple elegant understanding of the boot process, more details to come)

6. Change/improve styling on YAST

7 Change KDE splash screen to match Plymouth

Instead of defining a couple specific attributes, like sparkling or dotted lines in plymouth, I'd rather see some draft proposals on boot-to-login theming. (Personally, I'm using plymouth's text mode right now and strongly preferring it ;)

8 Keep default splash screens for applications

I prefer the default splashes to our splashes, as the -opensuse variants have always been synced to the default wallpaper. Once you move away from the default wallpaper, those themed splashes don't correlate anymore. If we move forward with the uniform boot process, and identify the splashes there, then *maybe* I'd agree with theming them. But, with the other things we want to do, IMO we should agree to use default splashes for 12.3, and revisit for 12.3+1. -- James Mason SUSE Studio Developer openSUSE Member+Ambassador 2925 Roeder Ave #300 Bellingham, WA 98225-2065 USA +1 360 752 6707 jmason@suse.com SUSE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+owner@opensuse.org
