I might have to add to the commotion and say, "can you make one for a 1400 x 1050 monitor?", which is what I have.
To help deal with the army of resolution requests, it would be really good if you could publish the usplash as two SVGs: one for 4:3 displays and one for widescreen displays, which can scale to any resolution automatically. And look nice.
Thanks

Unless, of course, you have integrated the progress bar into the logo itself, which would be pretty slick :D (hint hint for another variant - the logo and "Ubuntu" text could fill up with a different colour, or maybe exist as outlines until the colour fills through them.)
I also think that the white background is a bit nicer than the stock black background, especially given that not much of the default Ubuntu theme is black whereas more of it is white, like the panels.
"Linux for human beings" is a decent slogan but could you maybe do a more "corporate" variant where only the logo is present, not the slogan? I don't mind being partisan about software but large or corporate organisations might like a more "neutral" logo, if you catch my drift.
Other than that, I think the "normal" variant looks the nicest, followed by the small variant. The eye candy variant doesn't look very natural or realistic though. It's hard to put into words, but perhaps it needs some shadows, lighting, maybe the text needs to be thicker... I can't say exactly.

I couldn't test it on my laptop so I would be grateful if you please give me some feedback about it ;)
