We have a few flavors of openSUSE around already and changing the wallpaper is a good idea, however, I don’t know that we I (just myself) could commit to changing it constantly. A good wallpaper takes time. I vote for just keeping the same wallpaper across or choosing a different one that is already included with KDE or Gnome.
Sorry for answering earlier message, but I have to.
For many years SuSE then SUSE and then openSUSE felt more consistent than other distros. Other distros indeed went the simple road: default grub, simplest plymouth screen, default login screen, default wallpaper that comes with the desktop. Yet in every release of openSUSE the picture and style was consistent, like in real finished product and not half-baked solution.
So, maybe to get more-or-less consistent user experience it would be enough to have some sort of script that will apply the same wallpaper image to: 1. grub background 2. simplest plymouth fade-out theme 3. SDDM/GDM/KDM 4. ksplash
Yeah, that would be a really good idea...

One we've had implemented for years ;)
Cool! Thanx for sharing the link! But those are full branding packages, how do you think, will it be possible to make similar user-space tool so user will be able to apply his favourite wallpaper across the entire system without the need for installing/replacing packages?
