GNOME Shell Wallpaper

Looks like Fedora 15 has finally decided to go ahead with its own wallpaper for the GNOME Shell. When I updated my F15 system today this is what is now the default wallpaper instead of the default upstream GNOME3 Shell wavy blue wallpaper.

Very very nice!!

I agree. It is the best wallpaper since Fedora 8 (for me, the most good-looking of all Fedoras). There are also other wallpapers via Control Center that are new and quite beautiful also.

Re: GNOME Shell Wallpaper

This wallpaper is overwritten by one of the latest updates! But you will find it in /usr/share/backgrounds/lovelock/default. You can change the gdm-wallpaper by replacing the file in /var/lib/gdm/.cache/wallpaper/

Re: GNOME Shell Wallpaper

It's very nice, yet also slightly strange. Perfect for GNOME 3.0 then!

Re: GNOME Shell Wallpaper

There is a plymouth update that is new in koji, contains a new theme, spinner.
Kinda simple and isn't set as the system default theme, so you'd have to update,
install that extra theme and do "plymouth-set-default-theme -R spinner" in order
to try it out. Isn't much, as I said, but it beats looking at that charge theme one
more time.
