I think, in this case at least, the numbers add a nice positionally
contrasting touch, and really don't call attention to themselves like many
other wallpapers. The lynx itself overall looks very good, but the front paw
looks a bit thick compared to the others, while the tail looks relatively
thin and short compared to how I would think this would look. Both of these
could just be a problem with it having a sort of 2D look whereas the bigger
and smaller limbs are meant to look 3D, but these were what stood out the
most for me.
