As much as I love that wallpaper idea, I think that we should go with a nice, simple, clean look so users feel like they have a nice working ground that they can install what they want on it and work from the ground up. As I said, it looks awesome, it's just I don't know if everybody would like it.<br>

I've been following the posts on this subject and here is what I am<br>
thinking:<br>
<br>
What if its an outer space scene with stars (having animated twinkles<br>
... for the boot-up background image)? There would be asteriods and,<br>
may be, one or two planets with 'our' rocket somewhere in the picture.<br>
The scene would have a blueish hue to it. Its the kind of thing that is<br>
best done with a 3D application like 'Blender' and rendered with V-Ray<br>
or Yafray (and retouched in GIMP). I cannot help thinking about a<br>
wallpaper I downloaded from CG-Arena ... just to help our imaginations<br>
as I can't think of anything closer at the moment. My reference is a<br>
bit busy but I hope it paints the right mental pictures.<br>

I also see that we have limited time to agree on this based on<br>
design-team Digest, Vol 9, Issue 32<br>
