social.jpg is just a little big in the new one because it has some small
text, and I'd rather it be readable than smothered in jpg artifacts. I
have copies of all of these as PNGs, so I'll compress them a little more
if you'd prefer: it won't be the end of the world :)

I agree, the lateness of this was really ugly. I understand there's a
new design for the Ubuntu slideshow coming down the tubes for Ubuntu-Q,
so that will be a good opportunity to change how the screenshot stuff
(if it continues) is done. We can probably make it so it doesn't depend
on the new wallpaper, at least. That would be good.

Title:
  [FFe] New screenshots for Ubuntu installer slideshow

Status in “ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  This is a freeze exception request for one last update to ubiquity-
  slideshow-ubuntu, including new screenshots for the Ubuntu slideshow.

  This is pretty straight-forward: previously, screenshots shown in the
  installer were from an older version of Ubuntu. Now, they're from
  12.04. And they're a little more consistent, too :)

  You can see a preview slideshow with new screenshots over here:
  http://people.ubuntu.com/~dylanmccall/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/preview/
  (You might need to Shift+Refresh if you've looked at that before, because browser caching is crazy and stuff).

  I apologize that this took so long to happen. I wasn't expecting the
  wallpaper to arrive when it did.

  I am not intending to make any changes with this release except for
  the screenshots.
