Grub & login raw samples

These are very RAW, (all done in less than 10 minutes)  text color (grub) is my default color for my custom grub screen and didn't change, so input is needed on color, background, etc,  or can delete because it's that bad ;). Perhaps later in the evening I can work on different colors, etc, when I have more time, damn holidays and dinner(s)

I don't know who did the artwork but I grabbed it from

http://gallery.siduction.org/?dir=User-Gallery%2Fsiduction-kde%20%28kuchenfreund_in%29

NONE of this artwork is mine and I don't know who to give credit to.

@joogi: I like your dark wallpaper!

But I cannot download the other artwork from filedropper, it doesn't accept the captcha and always jumps back... 2shared was no problem (no need to login or to provide an email address)...

Devil, I strongly agree that the artwork is the business card of the distribution! But I stronly disagree about the dots! The dots are great and should stay! And a photo as wallpaper - why not? Together with a decent siduction logo (dots!) on it I'd prefer that over any svg creation.

just my 2ct: I prefer photos over selfdrawn graphics.

ElementaryOS has a beautiful photo.

Die siduction Icons für Menü, Handbuch und Chat könnten da so aussehen:





Looks very good!

Hey Guys, hard on your selves. You have an excellent, awesome distro first of all.  The distro works well enough to be the best out there. I'm running Siduction Indian Summer-LXDE, and I'm impressed. I'm a distro whore and I download until I find a keeper, I got a keeper. I use Faenza icons, and the F-Variants icons are really nice. VSIDO uses Linux 8 icons and are pretty cool.  Faenza are like the default Crunchbang Faenza before they went ugly.  Themes, a dark theme is what I like, easy on the eyes. Actually what I see with Indian Summer is excellent, but some cool new icons would be a plus. If I download an operating system that sucks, but cool icons, I canibalize the icons, harvest them for later use. Not nice huh. Themes too. Anyway, you might and may have a screenshot art section, see what people are using. Just an idea. I have my Siduction IS LXDE all decked out and pleased, plenty resources out there in Linux world that the user can fish from. Thanks-zephyr
