You are welcome Coastie.
I saved this image. It looks good when it's used as a wallpaper.

Thank you! I am enjoying my new boot splash!  8)

I used KoluorPaint because I could not figure out how to get the color I wanted with Gimp.

Guys this is not hard thing to do. Open the thunar like this:

--- Code: ---gksudo thunar /lib/plymouth/themes/liteboot/

--- End code ---
enter the password
This will open the file manager as an administrator
Edit the background.png in gimp and save it.
Update an existing initramfs

--- Code: ---sudo update-initramfs -u
--- End code ---
reboot and enjoy your new boot splash :)

Dave, I couldn't get her method to work. Got me looking some more and followed these videos to install Grub-Customizer:

Grub-customizer let me add a boot screen image either with or without an image by removing "quiet" but had no effect on the above image at start up and shutdown. I guess it is not a boot splash image. I will have to know what it is to find a solution.
