Super!

Sure.


Luis,

You are free to distribute the images under the GPL.  The XCF image is
produced from the Debian "Open Use" logo, also provided here

http://people.debian.org/~rleigh/grub-images/

and I am happy for all my work to be distributed under the GPL.  The
only part I'm not sure about is the Sarge "stripes", which came from
DebianPlanet.  I'm waiting to hear back from them about that.  Feel
free to modify the images as you like--I know I'm not much of an artist!

BTW, thanks very much for your "GNU GRUB splashimage howto", which was
what inspired me to create some splash images.  It's very well done!


Regards,
Roger
