While photos of unknown people (about whom I don't feel anything) is not exactly my cup of tea as desktop theming, I agree *some* will like that (how many, maybe we can learn by having an official proposal and see the feed-back). But I think such a theme should be *completely* made by photos, not only the desktop background. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com Cool Fedora wallpapers: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/wallpapers/ Open Clip Art Library: http://www.openclipart.org my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Yeah, I'm not saying that the picture would make a good default background. But it would be a good background for me, and it would be nice to have it available in the collection of backgrounds. For the default background, we can go with alienated dolphins, as far as I am concerned... ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
