I agree with Roman. The picture is very good and nice to look at as a piece of art. But as a desktop background, it is too distracting: busy, high contrast, many colours. It jumps to the foreground! > I added a soft shadow to the left half of the wallpaper. > http://lazybrowndog.net/debian/wheezy/_wallpaper/journey-wallpaper-v2.jpg > > Does this work better for you? I don't see much of a difference, and the above points still apply. What could help is to significantly reduce the contrast and colour range. Perhaps by using a simpler starfield and removing the starburst behind the Debian logo. Or perhaps by filtering the whole picture through a colour, similar to what was done for the Lisp Machine background. Or any of a number of other things you could try :-) > I have installed my wallpaper for a couple of weeks and am really used > to it, so this kind of feedback is really important to me. Thank you for making this beautiful piece, and working to fit it for the use case. -- \ “If you have the facts on your side, pound the facts. If you | `\ have the law on your side, pound the law.
