BluesKajHi folks12:05
ScarletKingHi, I'm a long time user of Kubuntu. Excellent distribution :)14:31
ScarletKingIt would be time with the 20.04 to change the default wallpapers and login/lock screen images14:32
ScarletKingIt's not something complicated but it is important, considering also the default ones have always been... ahem, quite orrible14:33
BluesKajI just use some favs from my Pictures file14:34
ScarletKingMe too.. I'm thinking for new users, this is (unfortunately) a very powerful first impression14:35
BluesKajhmm, most linux users are smart enough to know they can change an unlikable wallpaper image very quickly14:37
ScarletKingApparently not.. there are so many derivatives which do little more than changing pictures14:38
ScarletKingEven if it's true, I don't see why using an awesome desktop environment and then coupling it with ugly pictures14:39
ScarletKingIt would a be a so quick improvement..14:39
ScarletKingI could even submit some personal images14:40
IrcsomeBot2<RikMills> Plasma 5.18 will have a new wallpaper14:41
BluesKajScarletKing, well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and not everyone has the same tastes 14:42
ScarletKingTrue, but this is much less true for ugliness ;) 14:43
ScarletKingNice, then I hope something nice will be picked :)14:44
BluesKajlet's not get into a debate that based users tastes in pictures or images , it'll be neverending14:44
mamarleyThat's why it is configurable.  If you don't like the default, change it.14:45
IrcsomeBot2<RikMills> The wallpaper for 5.18: https://dot.kde.org/2020/01/24/volna-wins-plasma-518-wallpaper-contest14:45
ScarletKingNice much better than 18.04's one14:47
IrcsomeBot2<RikMills> Just goes to show how subjective these things are, as I think that new one is awful14:51
mamarleyIt's BROWN.  But all joking aside, that is kind of out-of-character for KDE's artwork…14:55
BluesKajit won't last ;long on my desktop14:56
BluesKajI prefer nature scenes like lakes and mountains or both...the great outdoors in other words14:57
IrcsomeBot2<RikMills> It might get changed ;)15:01
blazeI don't like both the old and the new one 😒15:10
blazethe last good one had a name "Cluster" or something like that15:20
IrcsomeBot2<RikMills> https://twitter.com/rikmills88/status/122067570804282572915:23
IrcsomeBot2<RikMills> cluster was nice15:23
mparilloElarun plus Oxygen looked good to me, but trying to Oxygenize newer Plasma seemed to give me a few missing icons.19:32
blazesurprisingly enough newer Plasma has no fallback icon theme19:43
blazeat least there's no such thing anymore in the settings19:43
blazeso may be that's the reason19:44
mparilloIf I knew more, I would love to create a bugzilla.19:47
