Xubuntu artwork

[Jim Campbell]

Is the wallpaper finalized?  I really like the xubuntu-studio icon set and
darker menu bars, but the wallpaper color and pattern doesn't seem to
compliment the icon set.

I know we've used blue as the default background in prior releases, and I'm
not any kind of graphic artist.  Here's a couple of screenshots that look
good to me:

Sorry for not having the Xubuntu icon in the start menu . . . I accidentally
deleted that menu once, and then didn't bother to get it back.

These are just general suggestions - I'm not proposing them as default
artwork choices.  I just like how the darker tones complement the darker,
cool blues and grays of the icon set.

Thanks, all.

Jim
