Let's change usplash Linux Ubuntu :
1. Download file throbber and usplash theme. then extract it.
Download startup-manager, It is application that make easy to change usplash. Install starupmanager to your PC.

My suggestion : picture resolution is 640 x 480 pixel
Open gimp -|- mode -|- indexed -|- maximum number of colors 256 -|- convert
3. copy usplash.png to folder usplash
4. Generate files to .c
cd usplash/
pngtousplash usplash.png > usplash.c
pngtousplash throbber_back.png > throbber_back.c
pngtousplash throbber_fore.png > throbber_fore.c
5. Compile .c file object .o
gcc -g -Wall -fPIC -o usplash.o -c usplash.c
gcc -g -Wall -fPIC -o throbber_back.o -c throbber_back.c
gcc -g -Wall -fPIC -o throbber_fore.o -c throbber_fore.c
gcc -g -Wall -fPIC -o usplash-theme.o -c usplash-theme.c
6. Compile all file object to shared library
