Just a window (hence the name "splash-screen" ;) with a logo or whatever
on it...

I believe the background gradients are a feature of the Reactor GUI creator,
if that's what you mean...

I've read that MagicMenus /does/ still work...cos I think Olaf Barthel did
MagicMenus, and he did most of OS3.5 too ;) I guess that most patches will
work, but you'll just have to reinstall them one-at-a-time to make sure,
like you do for the current OS...

See ya,
