What's your favorite Ubuntu default wallpaper?

Hmm... can you maybe post a pic of it or describe it more? The last three releases have had a purple wallpaper as the default and I can't find another purple wallpaper in the 10.10 choices. Is it in Natty?

Yes! It' s plain purple......no colors, no shinning stars or galaxies! Nothing!

JUST PURPLE! Dark Purple. Goes well with the default theme colors.

I liked gutsy's elephant skin wallpaper.

How come you can't see it as an option to select?

Ohh! I'm pretty sure you can do that with any color. The default of the single color wallpaper is purple, though.

10.04 and 10.10

8.04 LTS Hardy Heron

The first Ubuntu version I used and still my favorite default wallpaper. It's probably a very popular opinion, but I think that it was the best.
I never used 8.10, but it's definitely my second favorite.

2008 was a good year for Ubuntu's wallpapers.

Hardy Heron. Maybe it's because it's the first Linux distribution I ever used, or maybe it's because it was awesome!

Yeah, I guess I'm guilty as having it be my first Ubuntu experience. The color scheme was never my favorite, but the whole picture definitely is.

It beautifully integrates the animal in the release name into the desktop.

I find it a shame that the two orange narwhals with the purple background didn't make it as the default wallpaper in the current release.

My fav was UbuntuStudio Gutsy, but I voted for Karmic.

10.04 has my favourite default wallpaper. Even though I use 10.10. I like the way it contrasts with the default colors for the toolbars and windows.
