fedora-logos-1.1.53-2.fc6

It's the latest I can get.  But I'm not on rawhide.

So I've seen no changes so far with all the FC6 updates installed.
I'm not sure how much more lightened the theme is but wouldn't a
bright startup be better?  The FC6 background looks nicer from the
above link (though it's not in the FC6 updates yet) but wasn't the
grub/gdm/login a lot more simple and pleasant before?

looking through the translucency of a window.
