[QUOTEalso, if someone gives me some ideas / sketches of what the boot and splash shoudl look like, i will make them in photoshop.[/quote]
That's great! As soon as we decide on a name (we still need more voters on
the poll), we can start coming up ideas for the boot/splash.

tried installing reconstructor on my ubuntu machine but it keep needing dependencies that couldnt be found for some reason.
reconstructor should work if you apt-get install fakeroot and dpkg-dev. You might have to enable the universe and source repositories in your /etc/apt/sources.list
I've built several scripts to remove unnecessary packages from the system. I have the iso image from 710mb to around 530mb. I'm thinking of switching from reconstructor to uck (ubuntu customization kit) to further reduce the image size. The reason for the switch is that reconstructor currently doesn't support the xubuntu livecd. They are working on this however. The xubuntu live cd is about 540mb at the start. If I can remove 200mb worth of packages we have a distro that is ~300mb. UCK supports xubuntu and kubuntu along with ubuntu. I'm still going to experiment more by removing the gnome stuff and adding the xfce manually. I will start a poll also in the nanonymous forum for which
window manager users will want.
