I'm working on this... basically grub sometimes resizes to be a smaller 
square in the center of the screen on some types of systems including 
apple hardware), so pjones thought it would be good to have artwork that 
fades out at the edges to a solid color so grub wouldn't look so strange 
on these systems. This wouldn't work with the current grub image so 
we're playing with the syslinux image indexed and faded at the edges for 
grub instead. I'll post what I've got next week.
