[Bug 795511] Re: No Plymouth boot screen to match the login screen

 

Last one, I swear:

Since the animation time we have is very short on modern computers it
might be best to go with something a lot more simple and quick. I've
come up with an idea. This animation would run in around two point five
seconds total.

The come-in animation would be around half a second, then the logo
stands still for around one to one and a half seconds and then we have
half a second go-out animation.

I have no clue how to properly animate but I made this very rough sketch of it here:

My idea for a the general boot screen would be something like this:

The fade in is a motion-blur with 0 axis and coming in from infinite range and 0 opacity fading in towards 0 range and 100% opacity.
Then keep the image still for one second and continue with the fade out.
The fade out is a box-blur that transitions from 0 range towards infinity and opacity transitioning from 100% towards 0.

I think properly animated it would look good and 'snappy'. And it's non-
fancy enough to go through as elementary I believe, especially on high
speed :) It solves the fast SSD boot speed animation time problem.
