[jira] [Commented] (CB-1495) iOS default splash screen images take
up several megabytes

Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-1495:
--------------------------------------
I'm thinking maybe we should remove them entirely - they are merely there for developers to replace with their own ones after creating a new project. These images are taken from here: http://incubator.apache.org/cordova/artwork.html
