I'm sorry too...at the end the art teams was right...

I'll ensure the new images (solar and invinxible too) will be fixed and
will be published without any non-free part.

sorry again

That source should be OK.


After it, I will fix also invinxible so we can leave it on wiki.


Prioritize InvinXile as the last, we need Solar ASAP in a good shape for
inclusion.



Here https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/c/c6/Solar_2048x1536_v2.xcf.bz2 you can find the source correct.
Step by Step i'm correctin the other format.


If that makes your work easier: you don't have to provide XCFs for *all*
the sizes of the wallpaper, the largest one is enough, the other are
cut/resized from it.


When you get to GRUB maybe try a simplified version, for the current one
the white pixels (noise) do not look very good (I now, is really hard to
have a good looking image with so few colors). Probably it has to be
processed a bit after conversion to delete the noise.

While I am no expert at this, I can try.
But looking at Fedora 9, I think Syslinux is able to use images with
more than 16 colors (and the ThemingOverview page is obsolete about this
matter - the boot splash on the LiveCD is beautiful, the one on the
normal install is ugly) so the 640x480 version has to be optimised.


And I will say it again: for such splashes the XCF with *all* layers is
not needed, we can use the PNG wallpaper as a base and do not waste a
lot of space and bandwidth.

I fear we may have to go with the simplification as far as that (attached)

Or maybe someone more experienced at this can come with a better looking
simplification.
