Public bug reported: All the desktop wallpapers in my Ubuntu 13.04 installation appear as semi-blocky, compressed images, rather than high-quality, super-fine lossless images seen in other operating systems, including Ubuntu 12.04.2. This makes stock Ubuntu feel less professional, almost beta-like, and unfinished. Please push high-quality images into the update server; I really need a more-professional-looking stock OS for my custom builds I make for clients in my small business.
