Perhaps, but I bet this version is a little more subdued for a reason. As
noted, it's a little less distracting and to that, looks to be a perfect
candidate for wallpaper default.

I liked the previous version much more ! In the new one, the background looks 
dim and we only see the ibex. With a wallpaper, I don't want to be distracted 
by the bottom-right, I don't think a part of the screen should be so 
contrasted. 
I don't know if I make myself clear, but anyway, I love the old one. The new

I liked the previous version much more ! In the new one, the background
looks dim and we only see the ibex. With a wallpaper, I don't want to be
distracted by the bottom-right, I don't think a part of the screen should be
so contrasted.
I don't know if I make myself clear, but anyway, I love the old one. The new
colors are good, thought. A lighter color is good for a wallpaper.

I hope you don't mind, but I made an adjustment to your image and made it a
little lighter. May I ask why you would advise against including it in
Ubuntu? :)

Hey Rico, I love your work and style. But there is something in the
silhouette of this ibex that makes it appear, to me, to be somewhat
"rodent-like". Maybe the shortness of the head? It seems that the length
from the point where the eyes would be to the end of the nose needs a little
more length to make it more like the mountain goat that it should be. Or is
it just me?

The textless version is available somewhere. It's the second version on

Wow! Thats fantastic! I think that if you got rid of the ubuntu logo, text
and slogan, then it could seriously contend to be part of Ubuntu. I wonder
if Ken is still watching this, because the current wallpaper in ibex is
creating a storm of angry people, and since he said on his blog its a test,
then I think he still may be open to wallpapers (we can always hope).

Coincidentally I scanned some objects for textures just yesterday :)
So I had a go with your fine Ibex composition. I added the raw material
to my repo, I hope you're ok with it. I will always be careful about
attribution.

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~t-w-/ubuntu-artwork/thorwils_backgrounds/files/32?file_id=ibex_rico_sta_cruz-20080927154856-l2xo5c38l0j5uun8-1

Check the *.jpg please. Everyone's invited to have a play with the XCFs.
You can find the raw textures used one level up, in "textures", consider
them public domain.

Would you be able to make a 1920x1440 version of that, and perhaps color the
background redish-brown instead of yellowish-brown? If so, then it might be
able to get into the community package, if not then at least will fit most

Re: [ubuntu-art] Ibex Wallpaper

2008-09-27 Thread Adam
i like this wallpaper very much, the revision of the background is cool,
but i dont get why not to leave the ibex, since it doesnt take the whole
place it can have more contrast, and focus.
