My first backgroundimage for ubuntu :-)
The logo is from http://www.volvoguy.net/ubuntu/
I have make the ape with inskape.

So if you like this image (http://teg.sourceforge.net/data/share/image/ubuntu-bonobo.png) then you can get it from here (http://teg.sourceforge.net/data/share/image/ubuntu-bonobo.svg).

It is now also avail on gnome-look (http://gnome-look.org/).

Have fun and tell me if you like it :lol:
wfx.

Ps: The svg image is transparent, so change the backgroundcolor to anyone you like.

Dude! Did you hand-draw that and scan it in? If not, you know your way around a mouse. I really like it. It's calm and peaceful. I can see myself using it.

It is hand-draw
ubuntu is an afican distribution so i paint the ape.
It is a bonobo (the ape) ~99.4% of his dna is like human so i think it
match very well to ubuntu :-)

Awesome look. I just changed mine- making it transparent was a good idea. I was about to say something stupid along the lines of "Nice job but does it have to be blue?"
