Hi Corwin.

The only file format that nsis supports for header and the welcome page
is BPM, according to their README (see: MUI_WELCOMEFINISHPAGE_BITMAP
and MUI_HEADERIMAGE_BITMAP from
https://nsis.sourceforge.io/Docs/Modern%20UI/Readme.html)
I originally wanted to use a PNG or any other format, but sadly it's not
possible doing that,
so I had to export it to bpm and in the recommended size.
Also I wanted to make the existing one more colorful and detailed (and
inspired by other installers).
