[GRASS-dev] New splash screen for GRASS GIS 7?

The splash and start up screens are very nice. I still like a map background for a splash and am into historical stuff. But the simple and classy look is good.

Awesome work, as usual! Splash #1 is “ageless”. Splash #3 is modern.

If there is going to be "historical" map, why not select something "historical" that was created with GRASS? @MarkusN: any material available?

Among the american library of congress maps collection, there is the
famous Cassini globe gores set :

Has anyone used this historical data with GRASS ?
