OK, I will play a bit with this, it may not be too much work to make it smaller, but I was wanting the 10 most recent advisories ... > - Second the star is ... awfull ( 1280x1024 ). It should be changed for > a beautifuler one ( see some from bootsplash-theme ) or be removed Yeah, I was trying to reduce it's impact, I almost made it a shadow effect like the mandrakesecure text. The actual problem is no vector-based (or layered) original graphic available (so I'm stuck with the aliasing of the white background it was on). I will take a look at the bootsplash stuff ... but I don't have photoshop, and the Gimp only shows the same logo I used in Brant's psd files ...

I just wanted to show as much as possible about karamba by default, without including other themes (instead package a few extra themes). Maybe I should just remove it from the default theme?
