Just to give you _one_ positive feedback: I don't really like the image,
compared to the balloon image.. Oh, ehrm, positive: I think 99% of
the users will not notice wether the brush points in one or the other
direction, and I can imagine that a "fixed" image might actually look
worse.
"Realism" is not always the same as "aesthetics".

I didn't ask to replace my cool(tm) splash image, I asked to replace the
older one, which didn't have the right amount of colour to my eyes. I did,
however, silently expect somebody to change that image before it grows old
and starts stinking ;)

The about window definitely is more in need of a change then the splash
screen.

since it (the script) complains about a function that only exists in
cvs-gimp, I guess that either some install problem happened (I can tell
you about silent install problems), or that, maybe, the python-plug-in did
not get updated.

I like the abstract image as it is. I mean, it's not a photo...
