Yet, this is the main item now, release graphics fro F14, meaning the 
default wallpaper and its derivatives (various splashes).

The theme is "Laughlin", probably something around the concept "The 
whole is more than the sum of its parts"

Have a look at this thread:

> (3)Is there a preferable format for these wallpapers?  As in: are .svgs preferable to photos and edited pictures?  Are we targeting a resolution or screen ratio or simply making a flexible image that can be adapted to a variety of settings?

For performance reasons, even if the wallpaper was create as SVG, we 
prefer a rasterized version (PNG). As for resolution, check the 
wallpapers in F13, we target normal and wide screens, both single and 
dual. Also, take care of some other odd but often used resolutions.
