Clover EFI Bootloader playing well with Slackware!!!!!!

I change from elilo to Clover because I was bored. I like it a lot. I just don't like the ubuntu logo embedded on the drive. Anyone know how to fix this?

That looks exactly like my roommate's old MacBook boot screen. Is it an adaption?

I got the themes from here https://sourceforge.net/p/cloverefib...r/tree/themes/

I would rather use this background but I need to move the text up so it don't overlap with the icons, maybe someone can help and edit it. If not, I'll just have to deal with the one I'm using.

Is it animated? It would look cool if the line and 'Linux' under the Slackware was animated sort of like a progress bar instead of the drive pics.

I just decided to go with a different theme. After viewing a 130 of them, I mix and match to my liking.

Ahh just too late. Here's a quick edit I did anyways

PS. Wasn't sure if that was the resolution you wanted but I kept it the same.

No prob, looks better than the flat grey

I'll be sticking to my grub bootloader but I don't mind practicing my GIMPing a bit.
