uhm..
ooosplash="/usr/lib/ooo-2.0/program/intro.bmp" [yeah, path is modified for SuSE...]
and
cp ooo-splash.bmp $ooosplash 2> /dev/null

is that correct?

[btw. for SuSE 10.2 users:You'll have to overwrite openintro_suse.bmp ]

I've different paths in SuSE 10.2, here the ones I know:

amarok="/opt/kde3/share/apps/amarok/images/splash_screen.png"
quanta="/opt/kde3/share/apps/quanta/toolbar/quantalogo.png"
gimpsplash="/opt/gnome/share/gimp/2.0/images/gimp-splash.png"
ooosplash="/usr/lib/ooo-2.0/program/intro.bmp"

Well now some guess - which I don't know for sure but I could bet they're right:
kmymoney="/opt/kde3/share/apps/kmymoney2/pics/startlogo.png"
gaim="/opt/gnome/share/pixmaps/gaim/logo.png"

well the main thing is SuSE splittet those apps in /opt/ sorted in kde3 and gnome, but I guess after reading the paths, you already figured it out..

YOU HAVE TO MODIFY THE PATHS IN install.sh [only SuSE 10.2 users - maybe other SuSE versions too?]

it would be nice if you could create a program that automatically applies this splash screen to every program that starts kind of like how older versions of gnome would do
