Farewell! -- Thorsten Wilms thorwil's design for free software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com/ hmm, who dicided the wallpapers in Ubuntu always must have brown-tones. Africa is a colourfull country like every country is. :) Orange Icons fits well with white, blue, yellow , brown and dark-tones. Fedora is making almost all in blue-tones. But the Linux-User would appreciate more a Linux- Distributor who cover all colour-palettes, so the Themes haves diferent colours, too. And with the most Themes the brown-tones don't fit in the easy way. I like the Ubuntu-Wallpapers-Artwork, but I never use it ... maybe it's because I don't like the colour brown as background. PS: Thorsten, best wishes and thanks for all what you did right now. It's a great pitty that finially nobody can check out the render-script with the gthumb-implantation.
