Boot Screen for red hat?

Is it possible to put a windows-style boot screen on redhat 9.0, or at least some kind of image? The running ddown text is disgustingly unattractive. Thanks.

Take a look at:

If you are used to compiling your own kernels then it isn't that difficult. If you aren't then I would suggest becoming familiar with that proccess first:
