Cool idea. Since GRASS is a global project, how about one of the first truly global like Mercator's of 1569 (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_cartography#/image/File:Mercator_1569.png) or Ortelius' of 1570 (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_cartography#/image/File:OrteliusWorldMap1570.jpg)?
Better images than these from Wikipedia probably exist. With such a map, we could have a slightly different message on the splash screen too. Maybe something like GRASS. Bringing advanced geospatial technologies to the world. OR GRASS. Advanced geospatial technology for everyone. Anyway. Those are a couple of ideas.

We may consider to get community contributions for this. What do you think?
