We're in a disagreement here. I'm not ruling out photos as a default wallpaper, but it needs to be low contrast, abstract motive like the 9.3 background you mention. Here's a few photos by our very own Garrett LeSage that would work quite well as a desktop wallpaper -- http://www.flickr.com/photos/garrett/461494102/in/set-72157601461306539/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/garrett/1114272295/in/set-72157601461306539/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/garrett/1353915502/in/set-72157601461306539/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/garrett/1327511820/in/set-72157601461306539/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/garrett/1137787510/in/set-72157601461306539/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/garrett/2138550123/in/set-72157601461306539/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/garrett/2046407531/in/set-72157601461306539/ Throw some proposals in, please. I'll be happy to have a discussion about the 11.3 wallpaper. cheers -- Jakub Steiner <jimmac(a)novell.com> Novell, Inc. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-artwork] Proposal: Styled Default openSUSE 11.3
by Bart Otten 29 Sep '09

29 Sep '09

Hey all, Hereby a new proposal for openSUSE 11.3...... 1.) I would like to see a little more 'feeling' in openSUSE 11.3. An photo as wallpaper with a warmer colorscheme makes the desktop hopefully more personal feeling then the style at the moment. 2.) Novice users have no idea how to 'pimp' their desktop so we should do it for them. Add some nice plasmoids, tweak some nice effects for people with composite on, stylize Dolphin. We spend so much time at making openSUSE the most stable distro out there, let's spend some extra on making it the most easy-on-the-eyes for 11.3 Used: - Own colorscheme - Window and Styletheme: Bespin - Plasmatheme: Air for openSUSE - Forced 96 DPI - Adjusted menubar for Dophin - Some background from KDE-Look The idea can be seen at: http://en.opensuse.org/Artwork:Pixel_Pool/11.3/BartOtten_StyledDefault -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-artwork] Proposal Windows Decoration for openSUSE 11.3
by Bart Otten 14 Sep '09

14 Sep '09

Goodday all, in the far future we will release openSUSE 11.3. With 11.2 already at milestone 7 I thought it was about time to focus on the next edition. Therefore I created a new PixelPoolPage wich can be seen here: http://en.opensuse.org/Artwork:Pixel_Pool/11.3 Proposal: At this moment we use many buttons in our windowdecoration. Some of them can be easily removed without (too much) loss of functionality. If we do so, our desktop looks smoother and less frightening to new users. Link: http://en.opensuse.org/Artwork:Pixel_Pool/11.3/BartOtten_WindowsDecoration Regards, Bart Otten -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help(a)opensuse.org
