At home those fc5 themes & splashes are known as fedora "champagne" :-p I also agree with that idea about its new look, it is a lot childish in my opinion, for sure proper to animate the decoration's sky in a music "festival", the walls of a kindergarten, etc... Sorry, but I've upgraded to fc5 (from fc4) recently, so maybe I am still under "shock". I wouldn't like to be disrespectful with the team in charge at all but one of the first things I did when customizing the new install was to take away the /boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz file replacing it for a previous one, install gnome-themes-extra pack, change to a bluecurve theme, choose a more serious background, gnome-themes, etc... But mine it's just an single opinion -there are millions of colours, so there are millions of tastes.
