Note/Disclaimer: I am *not* suggesting adding this "feature" into gimp. And please don't tell me I am doing something wrong or stupid or degrading gimp in any way or form.
I like many of the splash screens submitted, so I select a random one at startup. If you wish to do the same,
- create a "gimp-splash" subdirectory under ~/.gimp-2.2 - place all your favorites there - Apply the included patch (patch -p1 < rand-splash.diff) - recompile gimp
