Thanks to you, this blog has been gradually getting more and more popular. I am ever more excited with the clear trend toward art and design awareness out in the bold wilderness of Free Software.
I was hoping to offer a sort of token gift for the loyal blog followers out there and I thought I'd offer up some high resolution (2560x1600) wallpapers. A few of the goals:
- Keep with the Ubuntu tonal range of earthen browns while at the same time fight against monochromatism.
- Keep things organic and mature.
- Create a set that would work well together tonally.

Click here to download all four of the images in a gzipped archive. I will hopefully get some variations created for the readers out there with dual head systems in a properly cropped and high resolution presentation.
And there you have it. A small gift from me to you. Thank you all for your support, emails, comments, cross posting, and casual reading...
Boring technical details for those who care: Shot with a Canon 100mm 2.8 macro. Post processed using UFraw. Smoothed using GREYCstoration. A simply stunning tool for photographic work with deep arcane mathematics and algorithms - the code should be a part of every Free Software project that needs denoising algorithms. Mingled and twiddled with using GIMP, Inkscape, and Imagemagick.

Quite nice work. Can I make a request that the dual screen version also be released as a vertical dual screen?
Great goals and great result :-)

Great wallpapers Troy! My wife wants to print them out and hang up on our walls! You can take that as another compliment :-)
Thank you very much for the wallpapers, Troy. And big thanks too for the link to greycstoration. I've just installed the GIMP plugin and it seems great, especially for cheap cams with crappy sensors.
