3 Karmic Mock-Up Xsplash’s Brought To Life (.deb’s inside!)

By , Published November 14, 2009

Below are three very awesome Xsplash themes based on some of the original proposals for Karmic’s XSplash. They all come with handy .deb installers, too!


All are the work of the respective designers but brought to “life” by a nifty dude called Andrew.


Golden

Based on Mr doobs’s “iteration 5” design

Installation & Removal
Simply download the .deb installer and double-click to install.
To re-install the default use ‘sudo apt-get install –reinstall ubuntu-xsplash-artwork’ in a terminal.

Super thanks to Andrew

    Whats the story with those super attractive gdm login instances on that wiki.ubuntu page. Why can’t my gdm look like that *shakes his fist mightily*

    I liked the 3rd, i’ll pick that and replace the “cylon eye” throbber with mads rh’s fireflies^^

    Now all we need is a graphical way to change xsplash (i know epidermis, but is was unusable when i tried it some days ago), just like the older gdm.

      At the bottom of the article there is a header called “Installation and removal” – it has the instructions for how to “revert”.
