Brown Sunset Wallpapers

Concept

Brown sunset, with the sun at the center, signifying that everything revolves around Ubuntu. And some clouds to the set. Brown, totally Ubuntu, with the Heron Simple background blend in.

I think that I am improving here, at least I think so. Suggestions are most welcome!

  • Amazing. Absolutely gorgeous. We might be able to put these into the live cd - I love them! -- Acelin DateTime(2008-07-05T18:16:12Z)

  • They are quite attractive. But as a devil's advocate, they also look very similar to the style used way back on the first releases with all the naked people adorning them. That is, if 8.10 is supposed to have a totally new and refined look, these might not be the best solution (even though I think they are beautiful). Also, shouldn't these be on the "Desktop Backgrounds Submission" page? -- Brian Fleeger 06 July 2008
  • To be honest, these are not well done at all. The Ubuntu logo is washed out, there is no contrast in the imagery, there is no succinct imagery in the first place; only washed out photos, the logo isn't even centered, there is no "rule of thirds" or anything of the kind. Frankly I think you have much work to do.
  • I can't say that the wallpapers are perfect, the logo isn't centered well, because I wasn't focusing on the logo all that much. Unbranded wallpapers have always been Ubuntu's tradition. The rule of thirds is out there, i uploaded a thumb to see it. The rest of the complains I consider a matter of taste. The contrast could be better though, and I am asking for help here on matter of the gradient noise. I just can't get it off the photos. i tried multiple graphic software to do it, bur I can't. Also can someone point out instructions for pngcrush??? --Silfiriel
