I've been playing around a bit with both desktop ideas and the textlogo. I know we're in a basic-ideas-phase, but as usual I couldn't stop, so these are somewhat advanced.

First off is a little wallpaper thing I got together, with strange little soft spotthings (looks like bloodcells sort of) and a reflective ubuntu-logo just for show.

And without the logo. It has almost a painted feel. Wanted to keep it organic, a little strange and unique. The original blobs were generated by a filter which i've tweaked. It *is* a bit cluttered, i suppose, but I've found no good solution for that yet, and I'm quite convinced it's a habit thing when using the wallpaper. I have it on my desktop now and will see how it works.

Here's the textlogo. It's a somber look, not really shiny-gloss. If we want to opt for brighter colours, it could go bright like the previous logo, but it looks real strange with dark browns in those cases. Will try a brighter one later on.

Here's a little fractal wallpaper I've messed with. Not ubuntu-coloured yet, just a draft.

Same one sombered down and coloured. Really like this one.

Another one from the same base (believe it or not), very non-intrusive and clothy and just a tad more interesting than a single coloured background. :) Still, I can't help but like it.

That's it for me! Hope it might inspire someone. Let me know if you want PSD's for the wallpapers.

Awesome wallpapers, the last one is pretty nice! I might want to use that one as the official wallpaper for the Tropic theme. But, I will need it in Greyscale, 1600x1200 in order for me to make it into the right colors (as it will grace most of the Tropic artwork, from Login Screen to Desktop).
