[Fedora-livecd-list] Why does my LiveCD look ugly?

[Bryan Kearney]

I moved the file in the rpm, and when I mount the iso locally.. i see 
that the correct image has been moved to isolinux/splash.jpg and that 
the isolinux.cfg file has the text "menu background splash.jpg". 
However, I still do not see the background. Is there another tweak which 
I need to do?
