+## Splat
 
-A library to make things cross-platform that should be
+Certain types of things are basically impossible to do in cross-platform
+mobile code today, yet there's no reason why. Writing a ViewModel that handles
+loading a gallery of pictures from disk will be completely riddled with
+`#ifdefs` and basically unreadable. 
+
+Splat aims to fix that, by providing a usable leaky abstraction above platform
+code. It is leaky, because it always provides an extension method `ToNative()`
+and `FromNative()`, which converts the abstraction to the platform-specific
+version. Load the image in the cross-platform code, then call `ToNative()` in
+your view to actually display it.
+
+### Support
+
+Splat currently supports:
+
+* Cross-platform image loading/saving
+* A port of System.Drawing.Color for platforms that don't support it (WinRT,
+  WP8)
