You only need to use terminal if you want to change the splash on startup and shut down.
Yo thanks for the awesome theme man... anybody have a copy of the original booting.png file? I didn't make a backup and now I'm always getting that meego boot screen, i want the original and in the themes/blanco/meegotouch/images/system-services folder, all i have is booting.png.fdb, from f2thak's red theme. if anyone can post the original booting.png, i can copy back into the blanco theme. thankss
