I tried (In Ubuntu Natty 11.04 - GRUB 1.99) setting GRUB_THEME to the theme.txt file (/boot/grub/themes/winter/theme.txt) of Colin Bennett's originonal "Winter" theme, which didnt work - am I doing something wrong there, is it Ubuntu or is the theme just outdated? Thanks - oh and as far as licencing, just GPL it, or are other licences more applicable for artwork?
