The startup splash is displayed by Plymouth in Ubuntu. There is an extensive documentation on Plymouth scripting and creating custom plymouth themes in Ubuntu wiki.

To change the Plymouth splash in 11.10:

Open Accessories > Terminal
Run: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mefrio-g/plymouthmanager
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install plymouth-manager
Open in applications menu.
