New Gimp Splash

I created a new Gimp Splash window in AI for Halloween.

Just place it in your "splashes folder" in your Gimp user folder. Then restart Gimp.
Works in all versions, and all themes.

C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\splashes

The desktop BG as well.

Thanks Rod.
I added my version of Wilber to the splash image.
Using GIMP 2.8

Thanks Rod. Pinched it for my wallpaper for next month - although I already have it up

We the 3.2.6 users are jealous!

Here's another splash screen image for anyone who's interested.

Cool splashes. Is anyone able to do a theme for Gimp 3?
