* Single image for all resolutions ( viz. aspect ratio independent )
Aspect ratio independent design is a horrible idea regarding
composition. There's not much besides undefined blurriness that won't
look wrong with another then a single intended aspect ratio.
It's also very unnecessary, as there is Style: Zoom in background
settings. Isn't that the default? If it is not, that's a bug!
Of course that means you have to deal with varying parts of the image
being cropped, then. See the templates at the bottom of
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Documentation/Backgrounds
* png file format
And/or SVG.
Eventually XCF, ORA or KRA (Krita) sources.
* 1900 x 1200 dimensions { ? }
2560 x 1600 pixels.
* CC license
Needs to be more specific:
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/
I guess national instead of the unported version are ok, though I have
no clue about what it means if a french person creates a derivative of a
work that is licensed under a spanish CC license ...
Without the Share-Alike part is OK, too.
* Suggested palette
More in a sense of has to go well with these colors we use in the
interface, please not in a sense of wallpaper must be blue.
* Theming suggestions
Suggested topics. Desired message and/or characteristics.
