You are wrong.

Sure, arrogance and stupidness are premises for becoming a KDE coder. ;-)

I went to www.kde-look.org and downloaded some of the first splash-screens in
the "most downloads" and "highest rated" ratings. "Connectiva KSplash", "Aqua
Slpash", "Pro Pack" and "Ice Age" splash screens look bad with applied patch.
Believe it or not, artists rely on this historic "leftover" (since KDE 2.1).

It's a decision between your images (which likely never will become default
or be so popular) and all others. I still think that's an easy decision. :-)

Don't search for logic where no one is in conjunction with current images.

As said, KDE developers are stupid. And perhaps now don't care about you.

Where did I write this? Never.

No, not at all. Much too dark. And shall that be a sun set? :-)
