When using the Standard splash theme, the respective icons jump in the left corner of the screen.
Would somebody help me learn the name of each of those icons and where they are located in the sources?
The last jumping icon is a plain text document icon. I doubt that is the intended icon. That icon often is used when another icon is not found or not specified. I want to change the icon to the default Trinity logo icon, like the other splash themes.
Thanks!

Darrell,
I saw the call to update the splash icon in starttde when adding echo "..." statements to look at the tde won't start issue. I think they will all come from ksplash and the individual icons will be in the default ksplash theme file. /opt/trinity/apps/ksplash/Themes/<themeName> Look in the theme.rc (xml file) for the icon name.

Turns out this is an interesting --- bug.
The icon image names are identified in tdebase/ksplashml/themeengine/objkstheme.cpp. The last image file name is go, or go.png. For whatever reason, some of the 8 icon names are theme icons and others are generic images from tdebase and tdelibs.
The last image name, go.png, is theme dependent.
I'm using crystalsvg and oddly, that theme does not have a go.png icon. Hence, the mime-empty.png icon is displayed for the splash image.
Creating new go.png images was straightforward because they should be duplicates of the kmenu.png images. All of the kmenu.png images have been updated for branding. Simple copy-and-rename and rebuild the tdelibs package. I have already pushed the new images to GIT and run the splash test in KControl.
The remaining icon themes are installed by tdeartwork. All of the go.png icons --- and kmenu.png icons, which all are the same, need branding updates. All of them show a gear with a big K.
