Description:
I really liked the background image behind Ubuntu 9.04's default login window, so I carefully converted it over to a 14 color GRUB splash screen.

There was a lot of pixel by pixel work done in order to make this look as nice as possible! 14 colors is not a whole lot!

No claim of mine on the image itself, it belongs to who it belongs to.

For easiest installation, please use Startup Manager.

GRUB

How to install a grub theme:

  1. Extract the theme to /boot/grub/themes/

  2. Edit /etc/default/grub file. Find the line starting with "#GRUB_THEME" and change it to "GRUB_THEME=/boot/grub/themes/[THEME_FOLDER]/[theme.txt]" (replace [THEME_FOLDER] ; [theme.txt] is probably OK ; remove "[]" brackets)

  3. Run sudo update-grub
