Hi Paul, thank you. So, if I understand it, there are two ways to make anything better. The first is no GRUB background image, the second is to design that image without gradients, with graphics objects with border lines in angles 0, 45, 90, 135 degrees for monitor with resolution ratio 4:3, universally only 0 and 90 degrees. It could be an appeal for graphics designers to try anything. JJM <div>2006/9/1, Paul W.

Hi Jiri, If I'm not mistaken, the GRUB screen is *extremely* limited at the graphics it can display, because there's no really good video driver running before your operating system boots. Therefore the default graphic has to be very limited in resolution and color palette. Even if your monitor is 1280x1024 (or higher), the computer usually can't display anything above 640x480 or so at that point in the boot process, so most monitors scale the image up to fill the screen, resulting in the ugliness you're seeing. -- Paul W.
