yeah, i'm a Linux Newb so I don't know too much, so could somebody explain in depth how to install a splashscreen? I read the how to install instructions and they don't help much, so could somebody please help? Thanks a bunch.
To install the theme, you need to find the ksplash folder.
1.Open up a shell and type in whereis ksplash
2.Go to that folder using Konqueror. You will see three image files and maybe several folders.
3.Copy your zipped splash screen file there, and unzip it there.
4. Create a folder called "Default" and move the 3 image files in the Ksplash folder into the Default folder.
5. Move the 3 images in your splash screen's folder (mandy_evo) to the ksplash folder so there are 3 image files there again.
Enjoy!
Ooopsie daisies, I made a mistake. "whereis ksplash" is not correct; it's just where the executable is.
To find the ksplash directory, you need to open up the "Find Files" program and type in Ksplash. In mandrake it the ksplash directory is "/usr/share/apps/ksplash"
You also need to go into the "pics" directory to find the image files.

SUPER ! Very NICE, GOOD !
I modified the bottom part of the splash screen so it matched my icon set. I was wondering if I can distribute it, does the creator allow that?
Please send me the files so i can see them ;+)
great work !

Plz read the "how to install" on top of the screen.
Just go to this adress: http://www.kde-look.org/help/index.php?type=3 Or, you can just press the "How to Install" button that's next to the download button.
