Details:

I sold Lemote Yeeloong laptops preinstalled with gNewSense metad at
LibrePlanet 2010. 

At least 5 separate customers came up to me after the sale wondering if
their LCD was broken due to the gNewSense background art, which does
seem to emulate somewhat what happens when LCD screens are pushed with
one's finger or broken in certain ways. 

So this is a request to not have any fades (have solid colors) in future
version of gNewSense background art.
