    1111Background wallpaper can be as simple as a 1024x768 or 1280x1024 or 1600x1200 jpeg or png.  Even better would be something in vector graphics form (svg or eps) which we could scale cleanly to different sizes.

     19this is the pretty picture that shows when a computer is first turned on, before the login screen comes up.  It usually should include some form of progress indicator and room for textual information.  The image must be a palettized 640x480 image with only 16 colors.  Furthermore, some of these colors will be used for output text, progress bar, and other trimmings.  more details on the format can be found [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USplashCustomizationHowto here].
