now
copy the file to /boot/grub folder (eg: $sudo cp /home/shibu/xxx.tga /boot/grub)

/etc/grub/05_debian_theme$gksudo gedit /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme

for i in {/boot/grub,/usr/share/images/desktop-base}/moreblue-orbit-grub.{png,tga} ; doto replace '
moreblue-orbit-grub' with the
name of your splashimage :
for i in {/boot/grub,/usr/share/images/desktop-base}/ceattingal.{png,tga} ; do Now Run grub-mkconfig for writing the changes to grub-conf
