more than the usual

this is virtual terminal one of my Gentoo linux box, pronounced - jen two lie nux. it is a 1024x768 resolution verbose boot splash. the background is made possible through what is called vesa frame buffer.

the wallpaper is called 'syrene'. you can get it from shadowness dot com. originally, it is a blue colored wallie, but i wanted a more bloody looking background so i desaturated it and recolored it red. the bootsplash config editing also took a while to get the hang of.

what's with the pink mushroom? and why the hell is my host called 'itsherloss'. read why here.
