Charles, I am not bad with photoshop, really depends on what exactly what needs being done, but I am quite advanced with some things. As a side note I rather like a black background, But I have not seen the background image you speak of yet. For writing code though my personal preferences are black or very dark background, with light colored text. We all have our own preferences though . .

Er, sorry. If you post a screen shot of the beagle background image, and give me a short explanation of what you'd like to see I will give it a shot.

Re: [beagleboard] Here is the BeagleBone Debian (beta + fixes) image you want to test (2014-03-27)
Charles, Ok will give it a shot after this weekend. Actually though, if I had jus ta stock image of a beagle, perhaps the one taken from beagle.org, I could do the rest from scratch myself. The text coloring on that image may not mesh well with a light blue or dark grey background. But that is pretty easy to test, so I'll check it out.

Re: [beagleboard] Here is the BeagleBone Debian (beta + fixes) image you want to test (2014-03-27)
Seems that the color replacement tool isnt very clean around the letters. I should have checked this before posting the image . . . But in this case, I'll have to get more creative in what I do here ( color masking ) which will take me a while longer. I do not have the time right at this very moment but will try later this evening, Also I had an idea of making an OpenROV like background . . . form the beagleboard.org top animated ad box . . .

The high-res logo is http://beagle.s3.amazonaws.com/logo/beagle_logo_FNL_2_cmyk.eps. Personally, I wouldn't mind if someone took the vector image of http://beagleboard.org/static/uploads/BorisTux_w_Logo.png and combined it with the Debian logo in some way to make a nice scalable backdrop that looks like Debian.

One risk with the default debian desktop image, it's in 24bit mode, so you get some funky concentric circles in it on our 16bit output video.

I see the solarization when the system is first booting, but after the desktop is fully loaded the image smooths out. Does the background remain solarized for you?
