/mit/jdreed/Public/gdmtheme/athena10-alt-theme.tgz keeps the backgronud 
and gets rid of the feathering.  screenshot-alt.jpg in the same directory 
is the screenshot, and I've uploaded a PNG version to Jira.

I think it's way too sterile, to the point that it looks monochrome, but 
that's just me.

Again, I'm happy to replace the background with an SVG if you want more 
texture, but I don't have the time to learn Inkscape right now.
