Here is a new version of the splash page:



Also, since we are no longer using the white version of the splash image, I guess there won't be any need to make that one.

If you want to use this image now, use filebox with root access, replace "wasplash.png" with this new one.

For the original version 0.2.6, It's located in: /opt/waxmppplugin/bin/wazapp/UI/pics.

Edit: For the latest version from git, it's located in: /opt/waxmppplugin/bin/wazapp/UI/common/splash

The original one I made was 168 KB. Now the size is reduced to just 26 KB. Might make that popping up of splash page smoother or something.

All hail Wazapp and all that \o/
Nice work, thanks!
However just head over to http://www.pngoptimizer.com/ and submit your PNG. New filesize will be 22,7kb.

since all the developers are putting their best efforts in wazapp why not we all play a part in giving something to this app from our side as well like d previous post of a boot logo smaller than before. So we can atleast change the UI to a more beautiful one whichs much more suitable and perfctly dedicated to N9. I am a graphics designer and was thinking of contributing my own UI options for wazapp. Will start the design soon.

Mine is 26 KB.. so I'm not sure if going down to 22.7KB will make a big difference

Welcome fellow Graphic designer.. sadly, the first 70 pages of this thread were all dedicated to the UI when tgalal started the development few months ago.. so we're pretty far ahead in that one already to change much now. But do give in your ideas.. perhaps they can be interesting

Nice! That can be a better alternative to the splash screen image for the beta version, average user can just replace the image with whatever.. but maybe that can be implemented in the new one.

Hold your horses ...
I'll process all images in the UI folder and will symlink the duplicates as well. Will post back my results.

What about adding landscape splashscreen?
Drive, Maps and even Filebox are using Landscape splashscreens if the device is in the landscape orientation while clicking on the icon.
(Would be nice especially for N950 users)


Download THIS for the splashscreens
