If you want to even _try_ to convert that wallpaper into SVG, I say  
give it your best shot. But I know that I'm not going to try. :)

I believe that wallpapers will usually require some effects that  
cannot easily be achieved in vectors. Things such as smudge tool  
usage, certain filters, some types of colorization... the base of  
this wallpaper is a rendering which cannot be redone in SVG without  
me having to completely rebuild it in vectors.

If people can make good SVG wallpapers, then they should definitely  
submit them, if only for to show off the fact that it is possible,  
but I'd much rather work with a much larger control over individual  
pixels.
