That is just awesome. Thanks for providing all this detail!

For example, I made an alternate splash screen with the text Subsurface-Mobile at the base, and with padding between the logo and the text. This means the text will always be a the base of screen. If you prefer this, I can send a patch with updated splash screens. Or if you want a different background colour.
I really like those. Black background is cool. But I think I consistently used Subsurface-mobile -- could you keep that capitalization?
Again, thanks for all your work on this!
