Description: A GRUB splash screen based on another member's background. For all of you that dual-boot Windows & a Linux distro.
Also a few extra splashies - 1 with Ubuntu tux, 1 with Debian tux, a dark background one and a wide version for 1280x800 (basically makes Tux and the Windows logo look normal when viewed at 640x480 on a 1280x800 screen). They are tarred and gzipped so first extract them all then you can use them as splashies.
Comments welcome.Last changelog:
Added less pixelly versions of normal and Ubuntu splashies at cost of contrast and added dark pattern background one.
I know, it happens when switching color index to only 14 colors, I will make them all like the old version and then include them all in the pack. They will be less pixelly but will lack contrast. Look out for update.
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)

I am Gnome fans. How can I use it?
Men, after using it I see that this version look a little bit 'pixelated' comparing it to the previous one.

Thanks men, this is the GRUB image I use on my machine. Thanks for the update :)
For some reason I can't change the first screenie but I've changed the splash, looks much better in my opinion.
Screenie fixed now, no worries.
