[GRASS-dev] New splash screen for GRASS GIS 7?

[Michael Barton]

If we want to do something from GRASS instead of something historic, I bet Markus has a LOT of cool maps floating around that we might be able to use.

An informal poll of the grad students in my lab this morning. All said “Wow”. Very professional!

I like the idea of GRASS morphing into a map of some kind. Also like Vaclav’s tweaks to make the start up a little easier to navigate—2 list choice controls with relevant buttons next to them and simplified text.


+1 for those to be implemented, if Vincent is too busy, I can have a throw at morphing a map in it.

A second proposal for splash screen and welcome banner (adapted to dark

Fonts are free (see previous post for Exljbris Fontin) or OFL (for the

Those who wish to trim things on the source file, feel free to ask...
especially for colors tweaking ;-)

Thanks for your efforts!
Do you see a chance to morph the true grass into a map (from left to
right or so)?

IMHO we need to somehow communicate that spatial data are involved.
