This is cool. How was it changed though? What was corrected?

These look very nice, but I think they are too thematic. Like, maybe if just the banner on the top had the lion or just the banner in the middle. But both having it seems a little overkill to me. I think we should go with a more abstract style for the banners. I think the Greek style actually works well and I'd rather see something a little more low-key / abstract like that on the splash banners. I think of any of the graphics, the wallpaper can be the most thematic, but the other artwork should really fade more into the background.

Cool can you work with Charlie's mockups so we're not duplicating efforts?
