Background Image

For some time, I've been trying to find a background image for the desktop that's related to FreeBSD. There are definitely good ones out there, but i just kept getting the feeling that the whole collection seemed bit lacking, deserving more for such a superb contender in the OS world.
Well, one day I got bored and desperate enough to make one. I'm far from artistic, horribly awkward-looking stick men being my best piece, so of course it didn't come out right, but I don't mind it and have decided to share in case someone takes fancy on it :) What's more, I'd hope there are others like me out there who just wanted to make another wallpaper. If you have, or know someone who have, please post yours here, too. If I'm at all lucky, perhaps we'll get a whole fresh batch of background images for others to stare at :) In the mean time, here's mine :)

rbelk,

Dunno if it's good enough for your collection, but here's my wallpaper:



A simple gradient fill with the FreeBSD logo superimposed. I tried to get the gradient to correspond to the highlighting on the daemon. A lot of wallpapers don't pay attention to the implied light source, and I think it ruins the effect.

Unlike most people it seems, I like light backgrounds. I also like the way the khaki or bamboo-ish greenish-yellow brings out the red of the stylized daemon.

But as they say, there's no sense in arguing about taste. :P
