I've improved the function for displaying the x-splash image.
Try `M-x gnus-x-splash' (after updating your No Gnus, and if you
have an interest in it, of course ;-).  If you wish to display
this image when starting up Gnus, use the following in your
~/.emacs , not ~/.gnus.el, file:

(setq gnus-inhibit-startup-message t)
(add-hook 'gnus-before-startup-hook
	  (lambda nil (setq gnus-simple-splash t)))

Note that it doesn't display the image correctly if an Emacs
frame is split horizontally and it is done in the right side of
the windows.

A stipple bitmap is tiled on the whole area of an Emacs frame.
It always starts at the leftmost and the topmost position of a
frame, and we can only choose one among them.  What the function
mainly does is to calculate the position of a slot precisely.

Regards,
