Andrew, That's a pretty cool idea, but I would offer a couple suggestions. I don't know how to do it as I'm not very good with gimp, but if you could make the working look like it's chiseled into the rock that might look more "natural". Also, and this is more personal preference, but I am not a fan of scenery for wallpaper. There are too many colors, textures and shadows that make it hard to see what's on the desktop. I tend to go for more abstract like <a href="http://www.vladstudio.com/wallpaper/?545" target="_blank">http://www.vladstudio.com/wallpaper/?545</a>. This one has been on my desktop longer than any I can remember. What I'm wondering is if you can stylize the scenery to make it look kind of like a painting or something or make it flatten and with fewer colors. I'm not sure that makes sense. I attached a couple quick changes that approximate what I'm saying. I wouldn't suggest either as an option, just a lame attempt to describe what I mean. Of course I'm sure others prefer regular scenery. Last, I wonder if it would be fun to play on the rock images with "ubuntu-rocks" instead of just ubuntu. Anyway, just some ideas. Feel free to take 'em or leave 'em. I have little to no artistic talent so my suggestions are probably not worth a whole lot. </div></div> -- Jim (Ubuntu geek extraordinaire) ---- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
