No other wallpaper quite says "Ubuntu is different" from Mac and Vista like this image does. Its gender-neutral, hip, and there's a certain wonderful whimsical forward-looking emotion captured in that upturned face. If Hardy does adopt this, and it is successful, it could also set a blueprint for future wallpapers as stylized paintings (with the stylization gradually changing to match current cultural styles) of the release-name-animal. I hope I'm not getting too excited here, -Sumit P.S. I wish we knew who the artist was so we could get them on the list! Sav vas wrote: > I love it (Fela Kuti).
