<From: Matthew Nuzum <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>To: Discussion on Ubuntu artwork <[email protected]>Sent: Tuesday, July 8, 2008 <There's no reason this would have to be an Ubuntu specific feature. I <would suggest contributing the idea to upstream and make it easy to <dictate how it downloads additional themes and wallpapers. <Therefore it would not be a fork, it would be an Ubuntu community <contribution. Suse users would benefit because suse could reconfigure <it to download themes from their selected list. Likewise if a <cross-desktop initiative worked with the system (like gnome look) then <multiple locations could be incorporated. <By the way, there is a program like this already, it's just not <integrated with the appearance applet. I downloaded it from synaptic <and used it to install themes directly from some central place <(art.gnome). It's not very easy to use though. It's called gnome-art <0.2. With some polish and a little integration with the appearance <applet it could be a nice solution. _____________________________________________________________________________ That's a great idea! Further, if it can be done in the nautilus wallpapers window, the same tool could be used in the nautilus themes/icons/fonts/etc windows to download other related content directly from the web w/o having to go searching. It would be great for all GNOME-based distributions, and only the wallpaper part might download from a special Ubuntu-defined sub-category of the main gnome site. To any Canonical employees on this list-serve -- is this something that you would be willing/able to push upstream for inclusion into GNOME? Thank you, Brian
