Hi!
I might be the only one but I think this wallpaper was always very
different from Debian's artwork. I for sure never even thought
"Debian" before people mentioned it on the blog. I wouldn't be too
worried about it appearing as a copy of anything Debian, it's a far
stretch. People *could* construe it that way, but you can construe
almost anything given enough free time...

+1 and I think the clockwise version feels a bit awkward.

Actually, the Debian swirl is clockwise [1]...
