Description: The promised Splash Screen for 3D_Marbles. It will be listed as Marbles in the Splash Control Module. (KSplash or Moodin did not like the name 3D_Marbles)
Anyway its still a work in progress but I'm gonna have to do a bit of research before I do more on it so for now here it is.Last changelog:
Fixed folder name issue and uploaded corrected file
Ok, that was easy. I extracted the archive and I got a folder named "3D_Marbles". I renamed it "Marbles" and gzipped it back to Marbles.tar.gz and now everything works fine! Thanks again.
Hmm, it is not working and KDE falls back to the default splash screen. The name "3D_Marbles" appears on the selection menu instead of "Marbles" (as you said in your comment) and I can see its preview but nothing more (for example when I press the test button it shows some wierd artifacts). I have already installed ksplash and ksplash-engine-moodin. Perhaps it has to do with the name?
I reloaded the uploaded and made sure I grabbed the right file. It should show Marbles when you select it not 3D_Marbles if it still does try renaming the folder in ~/.kde/share/apps/ksplash from 3D_Marbles to Marbles.
I double checked everything for you on my end let me know if you still have issues. This particular splash screen has been had some odd issues and I thought I had them all worked out.
Its working on my end but then it maybe throwing a wrench in the works for others.
Anyway if you need to send me a screen shot (if you can) of what its doing so I can see what is going on.

Ok, I downloaded the new one and still have the same problem. Once I renamed the folder in .kde/share/apps/ksplash to Marbles everything works perfectly (including the preview, the test etc...), Thanks again.

This is very nice and fits perfectly with your KDM theme, voted good for both! Thank you for your work!
