So, trying to satisfy your suggestions below, here a variation of the

http://lucmars.perso.orange.fr/ava/Lwallpaper2.jpg
http://lucmars.perso.orange.fr/ava/Lwallpaper2.xcf.bz2
and the background for the slides

additonally a template with this background
http://lucmars.perso.orange.fr/ava/ogp3.otp
though, one has to set the color concerning text, bullet and so on
independantly of the layout
