Whoa! Now you're talking! The best collection I've seen yet. I already downloaded and am using one of them as my backdrop. Thx.

I'm making GRUB/Splashy/GDM themes for some :D. They're really good and have a nice professional look.

lmao. Man, ever since I made that first reply, I've been googling to figure out how to make my own XFCE splash with some of those. Your link inspired me, and it seems you as well. I actually made one splash theme, but it's crap (see attached).
If any XFCE users want to try it out, just open up the "Splash Settings" window, click "Balou" > Configure, and then drag that .gz into the window. Then you can go back and test it.

Hmm that's a cute one ^_^.
Mine is pretty simple:
- Grub splash: http://www.schultz-net.dk/images/grub/ubuntu_grey.gif (from http://www.schultz-net.dk/grub.html )
- Splashy theme: http://www.linuxeu.de/images/wallpaper/ubuntu/ubuntu2.jpg
- GDM theme: my Dreaming of Ubuntu ( http://www.gnomelook.org/content/show.php?content=24907 ) with the same Splashy background
- Splash image -after GDM-: same Splashy one
- Wallpaper: black. (it just needs to stay black lol).

What a great find. Thanks b2k! :-)
I've already grabbed several of them. I tend to prefer the muted, understated wallpapers. Unless I'm using some of the Hubble or Chandra pics.
Anyway, thanks again.

Thanks! These are excellent. I seem to be gathering quite a collection of quality backgrounds...which is good cause I change 'em almost daily. Must be the artist in me.

You need something like that KDE tool changes wallpapers automatically ;), even fetching them from the net. I keep it simple: black.
