Thanks @aaronprisk but it seems there’s a time limit to edit posts which I just missed I’ll post variations in a separate post this time.

Looks great! Although there’s already a wallpaper called flow in Ubuntu 23.04. Specifically, “Flow_by_Emanuele_Santoro.png”.

Another small thing, but there are some compression artifacts in the image. Some higher quality renders or even the source file would be appreciated.

[aaronprisk]

Good point. Perhaps something similar… “Stream” or “Tide” or “The Ubuntu Wave”

[lost-cause]

Alright, i’ll change it!

Tide (Light)

All versions .zip file (Dark, Light and Logo less)

Hi @lost-cause
Just a heads-up: I’ve seen a few people posting some cool wallpapers in this thread, but including a logo is not allowed, so I fear your suggestion might be disqualified

… Please do not add any watermarks, names or logos…

[lost-cause]

@madsrh
Thanks! I’ll make a logoless version as well.

Hey, I noticed your artistry and found it unique, so I thought what if you built a jumping bull with the same style as Ubuntu 22.10, I think that it might be a big hit, but who knows?

[lost-cause]

Maybe remove the circle, and make the minotaur head white and center it, and maybe add a glow effect?

[aaronprisk]

This is more in regards to the inclusion of personal watermarks or logos. Folks can use the Ubuntu Circle of Friends logo, we would just remind everyone to make sure they adhere to our logo guidelines.

minotaur is too wild and ferocious for a nose ring

Minotaur: “a monster shaped half like a man and half like a bull, confined in the labyrinth built by Daedalus for Minous, and given a periodic tribute of youths and maidens as food until slain by Theseus”
Where is the part like a human?
