I found this (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=26495) ThinkLinux bootsplash and thought it would be great to use. But it is not in Usplash form and thus I can't install it. If someone would be so kind as to convert it for me I would really appreciate it. They could upload the result to Kde-look.org or I could upload it (if they didn't want to upload it) and give them credit. I think this is a great image that would be really good as a Usplash theme. Thanks :)

Nice work!
What is the maximum amount of colors in a usplash theme?
The (k)ubuntu themes are nice, but a bit too plastic for my eye. :)

That is awesome. That is exactly what I wanted. Thanks a lot. I will try this out later today. I will upload it to Kde-look.org if you haven't already and I will give you credit for making the Usplash file (not the image of course but you still deserve some credit). :mrgreen:

It is just a deb file so I would assume just install that and it would replace/take over your old Usplash theme but I could be wrong. I still haven't gotten around to trying it. I hope to do so soon.

First you install the deb file with dpkg -i xxx.deb
After that you must choose the new theme with sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so
And then you must do sudo dpkg-reconfigure usplash to write the theme into your initrd
