This is a splash screen about KDE in EUROPE.
Maybe it is a splash that has a smaller public....but i just wanted to make it because it looks great!

version 0.1.1:
I made a perl script to install the splash screen very easy: just run ./splash_install
version: 0.1.2
I removed the names of the countries. I think i looks better now.
version: 0.1.3
I fixed the netherlands
(manually, untill i have found a new map).
version: 0.1.4
I made Switzerland white on the map.

The island "crete" (in greece) is missing
and it is no small island (great if you want to spent some vacation in the summer)

I like your work, the idea is good.
Maybe you could make another splashsreen with the geographic Europe? I mean with a map focusing on Europe, but without frontiers :) . No limits.
So everyone and their dogs and me should be happy :))
Ah btw the word KDE needs a little more work: the K and the D of KDE shouldn't be so close.

I would like to see Europe more as Europe instead of several states more often(although I don't mean on internet especially. Rather in a political and cultural way).
I guess this splash goes very well with the KDE-Europe wallpaper I uploaded some time ago *g*

But I know that it's not your fault ... you have found this picture somewhere on the web and you thought it was accurate ... this confirms what I think since I first had access on the web (quite recently, actually): 99% of the information you find is CRAP.

i knew that Switzerland wasn't a member or the EU but i tought that it wasn't important.
and i know: it is a bad map but i wint change it because it is tou much work: then i have to invent a new slogan -> i will just make a new splash screen

Hungary is not yet a part of it. Is
no NATO, since NATO != Europe and
Czech and Poland are part of IT.
It's not OSCE, 'couse many others
are not included. It's not Europe, because
the spirit of Europe mow is "tolerance",
"open" and "extend". So this is a bad
splash since there is no Europe there.

I'd recommend that you check both your geography and your knowledge of the popularity of free software in non-EU european countries.

if you want to get all difficult I can tell you that iceland is missing completely from the map and that norway isn't a member of the EU either. I do not complain however, as the map looks quite cool the way it is!

And to put a map of whole europe on a screen of 400X300 pixels....-> Then you can't even recognize the map because it is to small!!
