Based on the great wallpaper found here and some of my existing themes I give you:

Named by @anon96036739 - the artist behind the painting.

This is gorgeous. I vote that this be included in the default install, after some tweaks to make the text more legible.

Or at least make a package called: grub2-theme-eos-ship or something like that, for the official eos repo :slight_smile:

Beautiful work. It is ALMOST enough to make me want to use grub again :grin:

Of course - this would need some tweaking too… :grin:

Theme looks great, but then I’m a bit biased, lol. Really like the menus and design you’ve done. :+1:t2:

Very nice! :+1:

I had no idea you can create such padding as on picture 2, that’s cool :slight_smile:

This looks awesome.

A small “nit-pick” is that it’s stretched on a 4:3 display… :frowning_face:

I really love it! In my opinion, a good addition would be to add a background (semi-transparent would fit) to most labels (even unselected) as I find it a bit hard to read sometimes :+1:

This is good idea.

  • checking how to - it also revealed some flaws in the design.

I will rework it a little bit - hang on.

Looking good! :+1:t2: If I may also offer an idea or two … if the purple box was flush at the bottom, as at the top, and white or dark grey for the button, instead of black, could work well too, or for a second option for people.

What do mean? I am not the graphical type - I am with colors as a cow with a violin.

I did experiment with the white button - I think grey is a good idea.

And by the way - the git repo now contains a PKGBUILD - to ease installation.

This Grub theme looks so nice!

Sorry, I meant there’s just a small gap where the purple shows at the top, above text, but a large amount of purple below the 3rd line of text. Flush as in ‘aligned with’. Maybe my Northern British vocab coming in there! :slight_smile:
