You know, while I like the idea of using SVG in bowth Help documents and About dialog, I do hate when I have to wait till it's rendered and shown.
On my 1,6 Centrino + 512 Mbyte RAM laptop the current About dialog renders ~6 secs. This is insane. I would vote for a GIMP-like About box with a smaller SVG inside, if anyone cares to listen :)
There is a strong possibility the gimp will move to the standard dialog too and then see about adding back the eye candy.
The current About screen is quite slow to load which somewhat detracts from its good looks.
