mockups of these.


My option is for something clean and simple, not much moving beside a 
progress bar.

I just posted a new F11 wallpaper mockup:

It's more really an attempt at a nice backdrop, and maybe we can layer some of the trees and buildings we were talking about on top. What do you think? 


Indeed, it is a nice backdrop but as a wallpaper is probably too simple, 
we would need to add some elements. And maybe alter the colors a bit, 
making the grass greener and the sky bluer.

I hope we can share ideas again as for Solar :)

I like clean splash screens and another issue is - we can have same splash in 
KDE too - we don't have so many possibilities to animate it as Plymouth has 
and I'd like to see same splash during whole boot process - from Plymouth, 
through KDM and KSplashX, first boot with final desktop background = 
consistency. I don't know if I will have so much time to do all branding I'd 
like to for KDE (Plasma theme, HTML templates, etc.) but I'd like to try.

And proposed background is warm and fresh for spring release as Solar was cold 
for winter :-)

Agree - it should be more HDR like.
