splash art causes unhelpful error traces

Bug Report

Problem

As of today I cannot add platforms, build them or do anything else with Cordova I always get this no matter what command I'm using:

What is expected to happen?

Platform should be added along with the plugins.

What does actually happen?

Command launches but errors mid-way resulting in a corrupted install.

It just started happening today semi-randomly.

Turns out it has to do with the splash art image being too small ...? Regardless of the actual problem I think the CLI could do a better job of highlighting what's wrong; even using --verbose wasn't really helpful in this case.
