Task Description

Currently, the Spyder logotype used in the splash screen is all lowercase, like this:

For consistency, it should match the Title Case, small caps version from the docs banner, readme banners, Spyder homepage, etc:

EDIT: Realized I copied the wrong image

Also, as part of this we might want to either tweak the background’s position to improve contrast (avoid light on light). but the current dark BG logo is probably still fine and I think looks a little better her anyway, IMO. The best way to do that, if you have the margin, is just to bump the BG image up by a little so the dark parts cover the white web strands from the logo.

Ok, here is a version with a smaller logo and more subtle shadow. I think it looks better.
