Hi again.
my wife helped me with the artistic part of my inkscape work for our entry in the openSUSE-12.1 Artwork competition: http://www.zq1.de/~bernhard/linux/opensuse/12.1/opensuse-12.1-draft9.svg.png
(CC-SA licensed)
The directory also contains earlier versions and svg source.
I used the colors from http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Artwork_guidelines Butter and Lemon colors for the background gradient and Sky color for the Bezier curves with an added white band - all slightly transparent to better merge into the whole.
"You are not limited to using colors solely from this palette for your designs"
Maybe the background could still be improved...
I have used your gradient and added a mathematical element:

And another one:

while the math is nice, it appears to me a bit too technical while the background is rather plain/dull.
I improved our first draft towards http://www.zq1.de/~bernhard/linux/opensuse/12.1/opensuse-12.1-draft13e.svg.p...
hmm I can't see that big difference. Also I am not a big fan of distro logos on Wallpapers. Most of the other big distributions are not containing logos on wallpapers any more, too (e.g. Fedora, Ubuntu...).
