Hi:

  Here is a 3.5 translated and enhanced version of the splash image. I
thought that having a 3.1 scene as splash for the 3.5 version was rather
retrograde. Translation was easy: change #version 3.1 to 3.5. :) But I
also "enhanced" it by replacing the old tricks with the new features:

  + Water texture uses now variable reflection and interior fade
  + The tricky underwater fog is replaced with scattering media
  + Removed the "camera-mounted" light and used evenly distributed
    lights on the sky
  
  All the other differences must come from different behavior on 3.5
(like noise generator). I still need to adapt the gradient for the wet
zone on the rocks, but what do you think? Do you like it better than the
current splash? Or perhaps I lost the original "spirit"?
