The "simplyblack" Grub splash image (gfx)

For those wanting to keep that black KDEmod/SimplyBlack theme going from start to finish, I took out my Gimp hacksaw and made a Grub splash image .... enjoy.

Grub splash image

I am using an Arch Linux system with legacy grub. I have configured a boot time splash image which appears when the grub menu comes up when booting but disappears when a selection is made and the OS starts to boot. How can I keep the splash image always on at boot time?
Appreciate any pointers and thanks in advance.
EDIT: Also, I use the "quiet splash loglevel=2" kernel options but I see messages on the console "Starting .... [DONE]" How can I mute these messages?

Thanks. I am installing fbsplash. Meanwhile I have tried to configure plymouth without success. I get the error pasted below when I run mkinitcpio - p kernel26 after installing plymouth (0.8.3) and changing 'HOOKS' line in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf to include 'plymouth'.
I am on a legacy system which is running 2.6.31-ARCH. I can't upgrade it as there is other proprietary software which will have to be fine tuned.
Appreciate any help/pointers.

What happened to OpenOffice splash image ?

I've created an OpenOffice splash image and it was elected to be the distro splash... As far as I can see, Arch is using the default OpenOffice splash image.. Is there a reason for this change ?

MartinZ wrote:Yeah, i also miss the Arch-splash screen. I understand that too much customization may difficult maintenance, but we also need some personality... i mean, the kernel has an arch logo, kde menu and so on. So everyone that watches our computer knows we're running Arch and not just a random distribution. Anyway, it would be nice to have the OOo arch splash screen back.
I will be putting together artwork-related packages over the next couple of weeks. I will include an OOo splash package that contains the logo mentioned above--it will be optional (e.g. not included with the default OOo package.)

Well, then you most likely ditched it because you made a mistake.
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cf is supposed to write a completely new grub.cfg based on the scripts and /etc/default/grub file. So of course anything you had edited in the grub.cfg directly got lost when you did that. It din't screw it up, it replaced the file like it should.
If the result didn't work, then something was probably wrong somewhere else in your config files.
I know how to use Grub I've been using Grub for as long as it's been around and I've also used Grub2 just fine on other distros without a problem.
I didn't screw anything up and I left the config file alone also and edited it in the /etc/grub path I believe it is, like you are suppose to...
The simple truth is there was a problem with UUID, so I tried to disable that also in the config;
GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true
But this didn't work and it just had a bug I didn't feel like dealing with so I dumped it, anyhow like I said I'm using legacy just fine...
Don't assume next time that something is wrong, people are screwing things up...
P.S. Let the post rest it's over and I'm using Legacy so no need to revive it...

The application starts normal and uses a different look and feel under Windows as under Linux, but I do not see the splash screen. I tried different ways of referencing to the picture and I also tried using a .gif format. It never worked!
Any suggestions are welcome!

Splash image flickering

Hello
I have create a program that start with a splash image defined in the manifest.mf file with the statement SplashScreen-Image: data/images/splash.jpg.
When i run the program with jre 1.6.0 I see an undesidered flickering of the splash image.Can anyone help me?
thanks

what is the advantage of the native splash over
making one yourself? The spash screen comes up before the JVM and as the app is loading.
I guess its just there to pacify people who think the JVM and App Startup
is too slow. I know people at my job have actually said to me when
running a Java app "why does it load sooo much slower than a VB
app?" when in actuality it came up in an eye blink.
I guess VB apps load in half an eye blink, lol.
Do you have any code that manipulates the java.awt.SplashScreenI thought that because the SS comes up before the JVM (or concurrently
or whatever) that you couldnt control it?

In this apk included ALL DW Folder files incluing images (eg splash images) for iOS - non needed act

Following David Powers videos or books, instaling phonegap in dreamweaver site... well, config.xml references many splash screen image files for many platforms, well when build eg a specific binary (when upload with dw cs6 to phonegap) eg apk in this apk included ALL DW Folder files incluing images (eg splash images) for iOS - non needed actually for apk (android)?

I am sorry to have to point out to you that you have changed SpryMenuBasicSkin.css so much that it is impossible to render any assistance.
To start with, the menubar has an ID of MenuBar, yet in the CSS I only see this referenced as a CLASS as in
.MenuBar {
background-color:#cccccc;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; /* Specify fonts on on MenuBar and subMenu MenuItemContainer, so MenuItemContainer,
MenuItem, and MenuItemLabel
at a given level all use same definition for ems.
Note that this means the size is also inherited to child submenus,
so use caution in using relative sizes other than
100% on submenu fonts. */
font-weight: normal;
font-size: 16px;
font-style: normal;
padding:0;
border-color: #ffffff #ffffff #ffffff #ffffff;
border-width:0px;
border-style: none none none none;
I would suggest to start again.
Once you have done that, supply a link to your site and we will assist you further.

Flex Mobile Splash Image

Hello,
Is there a way to increase the visual quality of the splash image? Or set size?
How about adding text in adition to the image, like "Loading..."?
Thank you.

Good idea, thanks.
However, I did this differently.
I was having problems with quality even with scaling set to none, the image would get jagged edges etc.
I tried vector formats, but neither FXG or SVG are allowed in 4.5.1.
Luckily, SWF is allowed and I imported the vector graphics to in and it worked.
The SWF can contain no AS or rather any AS in the SWF file will be ignored, but it does work.
And as a bonus, the SWF filesize is 2x smaller than the GIF I was using (now that I think about it, the scaling might have worked better on JPG or PNG files).

Change splash image at HTML GUI

Hello
How can i change the splash image that its shown calling transaction from enterprise portal??
The url for the image is http://xxxxxx.xxxx.xx:8000/sap/public/icmandir/its/lsgui/images/img/splashscreen.jpg
Thanks.

Hi Julio,
This change is not supported by SAP, recommendation is to use ~nosplash.
The splashscreen source code can be found here: go to SE80: Internet
Service -> System -> Topic SL -> Mime Objects -> Page ->
splashscreen.html
Image itself: Goto SE80: Internet Service -> System -> Topic SL
-> Mime Objects -> Image -> splashscreen.jpg

I am using a Photoshop cs2, and I wonder if it is possible to keep the settings of the guidelines when closing an image, with the actual document ? It would be nice to have the guidelines locked down, I find it than when opening the same or another image,

I am using a Photoshop cs2, and I wonder if it is possible to keep the settings of the guidelines when closing an image, with the actual document ? It would be nice to have the guidelines locked down, I find it than when opening the same or another image, the guidelines are not locked, it is annoying to have to lock them down again. and it would actually be nice, to ba able to give specific directions when placing the guidelines. Thanks

Then why are the guides unlocked when I reopen a document that I saved with the guides locked ?
Thanks.

Error message "This program cannot display the webpage when uploading images to Cafe Press

I have had a Café Press shop for five years and except for sometimes being slow, no problems uploading images. Now, suddenly for 3 days I get the message "This program cannot display the webpage
Most likely causes:
• You are not connected to the Internet.
• The website is encountering problems.
• There might be a typing error in the address.
What you can try:
Check your Internet connection. Try visiting another website to make sure you are connected.
Retype the address."
I got the messsage about half way through the uploading of an image. People suggested using "firefox" instead of IE so I now get a similar error message from Firefox. I signed in, clicked on the image I wanted to upload and hit "upload" and get message as follows:
Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at members.cafepress.com.
* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
[url=http://www.example.com]www.example.com[/url]
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
None of this makes sense because I WAS connected to the internet (obviously) or I wouldn't have been able to sign in, go to my media basket, browse for the image and click "upload" and watch as the progress bar showed percentage of upload such as 20%, etc. and even went to 100% at times before giving me the error message. Plus I couldn't make a typing error since I wasn't typing anything but uploading an image. Any suggestions?
Whatever your suggestion, I need step by step instructions as I am totally computer illiterate. I don't even know what a "proxy" is and don't know if I have a "firewall" as the message suggests. I have "Comodo" security and am using Windows XP.
I contacted CP which was no help at all. All they did was tell me to clear my cache which I do after every session. Thanks

How can I find out the dpi of an image in Acrobat.

How can I find out the dpi of an image in Acrobat. I have tried the pre-flight option but I really don't understand the pixels width x depth information that I get. I basically just want to know at dpi of a single image. Is there other program that will read my pdf file and tell me this information.

Thank you, tylerdurdain! That was ridiculously difficult to find. Not sure what version of Acrobat you're using in your image, but for those using Acrobat Pro 11 (in Mavericks), it's buried under View > Tools > Print Production.
That opens a panel on the right.
To keep from having to chase it down this way each time, right click on "Output Preview" and choose "Add to Quick Tools Toolbar". That adds a button to the top right of the toolbar.
Now you can call up the inspector with one click. Choose Object Inspector as tylerdurdain shows above, then click on the item displayed to get its properties.
