Description:
Hello Everybody

I thought to get a bit more into Plymouth and theming... However, i found a theme called "tux-dancer" via the super-boot-manager...

Couldnt find out who did it with via Google, but still thanks...

I modified it a bit

So what Did I do ?


Took things from the Open Clipart Site, then did a background.

My next Idea was, what would fit best ?

Then I found a Bird animation .gif on the Internet... it thouht to edit it...


Didnt knew how to put .gif directly to .png, and gifninja.com only converts directly to .jpg...

However, this removed the transparency of the bird, but it added, don't know why a second bird in a blue colour, looks like a ghost bird...

Reminds of the game "Prey" ? :-)

So this is the reason why this theme is called NightBird


As always, there is a .deb for installing... Tested it on my Pc and worked (Ubuntu Lucid)

Sorry, no Distribution Logo

The Progressbar was removed since its often buggy on different pcs and it wouldn't have fit in in this way

I showed this theme already some people, everyone of them liked it already...


You can see it on Youtube as well
