New and improved artwork in place



I've spent the weekend updating the artwork package for debian-edu.
The long standing bug with the CD splash image is now solved, the
background is finally black, and I've replaced the old image with a
nicer one with the mascot, the skolelinux logo and the text 'Debian
Edu'.

I used the new CD splash image as the base for making a new usplash
image as well, and the new one avoid the strange logo coloring of the
old image.  You get an idea on the current view by looking at
<URL:http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/debian-edu/trunk/src/debian-edu-artwork/art/usplash/debian-edu-usplash.png?op=file&rev=0&sc=0>


I've also managed to add a KDM theme and replace the KDE wallpaper
image, this making sure we have "our" images in the entire sequence
from the machine boots, through the login screen into the user
desktop.  The KDM theme is a copy of the kubuntu theme with "our"
wallpaper, and someone need to provide a replacement Design.png
without the kubuntu logo before we release the final Etch version of
Debian Edu.  I tried to do it myself, but failed.  Check
<URL:http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/debian-edu/trunk/src/debian-edu-artwork/art/kdm-theme/preview.png?op=file&rev=0&sc=0>
to see what it look like at the moment.

I am not a very good artist, not very good with the available drawing
tools, so I welcome better artwork to replace the one currently being
used.  Please provide better images and themes if you are capable of
making them.

To test the current CD in a virtual machine, please check the
instructions on
<URL:http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/HowTo/TestCDinstall>.  These
instructions are fresh from today, so please change them if you find
anything to improve.

Friendly,
