I recall that thread, now that you mention it... I thought I sounded off during that discussion but it looks like I kept silent.
I brought it up again since we've got the new logo on the site now, and people are making noise on the forums to get the kernel logo updated. People are just hard to please, heh. :P
Anyway, a decision should be made - either take 'em out, or update 'em.
Well, Thayer has recommended we remove it because the logo loses most of the effect in the craptacular colors provided by the initial VGA framebuffer.... me, I'm neutral. I don't reboot enough for that image to be relevant. I *do* think that we should remove the custom splash screens from apps, but I also believe the decision is up to the maintainers of the apps themselves.
