Hi Francis, Yes it's better, although the bow reminds me the beak of a screeming bird turnt to the left, I have too much imagination, I know :P -- Charles A.

I got a little scared when I saw the new default wallpaper, it reminds me a monster, it sort of reminds me the Alien movie:

Do you think we could change the drawing a little bit, just not to look like a head...? Thanks,

Kind thoughts,

I don't like the next one. I think the current one is nice.

Regards.

I do like it, much better and not so painful for the eyes. Attached one I did based on jimmac's work. Hylke

Hi Hylke, not too shabby at all. I would suggest making the stripes less apparent though, perhaps even using focal blur (http://registry.gimp.org/plugin?id=4123). Nice one though. -- Jakub Steiner -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help@opensuse.org

Well, it says "The goal of the default wallpaper graphic is to be unobrtusive and allow the items on the desktop to be seen. It should not hinder the overview of user's desktop." The guideline doesn't enforce solid backgrounds.

I think these green and blue backgrounds are not bad but somehow "plain". What about a real photo instead of a "plain" background? There are plenty of incredible photos free of rights out there...

I would prefer to see greenish default wallpaper for openSUSE. -- -Alexey Eremenko "Technologov" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help@opensuse.org

None of any major Os I know come with a solid background.

For me the default blue wallpaper of 10.2 is perfect. Nothing to complain about, really. -- Charles A. Landemaine. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-artwork+help@opensuse.org
