Another complementary idea would be to choose a mascot to represent Ubuntu, that would make a huge difference, both for the question of marketing, but would create the solid basis for the identity of the distro. A not very common example is the UBPorts mascot:
Normal mascot logo:
Wallpapers for Android Smartphones and iPhone as examples for the idea:
Very kind! Great for phone users and will look beautiful
Wow! How nice! Should be used in phones
Could you change the shade to a bluish-green one?
I got a little bored. Had a lot of fun making tons of different variations of the wallpaper. You can preferably check them out on my google drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1bxc9JIQKP8zUAowpmf9Egass8a54xM20
If you don’t want to use Google services, I also uploaded them on my own server, but be aware that it is painfully slow: http://mineclashtv.bplaced.net/downloads/Ubuntu%20Focal%20Fossa%20Custom%20Wallpapers/
I played around with many gradients and every variant is available in a minimal version without the mascot and with it (though I removed the “lasers” since most of us don’t like them) and included bright and dark versions. Hope you enjoy!
Here you can see the one which turned out best IMO:
Thanks ‘slapbass’ I grabbed your blue backgrounds!
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but what tools did you use to make this? I just want to know so i can make a Ubuntu Mate version ie green colour. Want to learn how your making this as it, class!!!
I just used inkscape with a buttload of layers. I can upload the svg somewhere if you want (not the most pretty file in the universe, but could be useful).
Thank you for the reply, the information is enough, thank you. What about a YouTube tutorial video of you doing one?
Outstanding! Thanks.
