Comment 46 for bug 276594

The entire point of the bug report is that an overwhelming number of people think the wallpaper is horrible. If you looked up the word hideous in the dictionary it would say "see Ubuntu Intrepid". There has been a new theme promised twice and this is not even an attempt to deliver this. This is how Microsoft handles things, they completely ignore what the end user's want. Is this really how we want Intrepid to be viewed?

I have now read two reviews that have had very negative comments regarding the theme and wallpaper. There are one man distributions with better artwork that this! Ubuntu is probably the only distribution in history that has a bug report filed against it's artwork. Doesn't that say something? Does any other distribution have hundreds of reply s on it's forums about how bad the the wallpaper is?

There needs to be change. Two releases now people have been anxiously waiting for change in the theme and wallpaper. I thought Ubuntu is "Linux For Human Beings". Human beings are asking for decent artwork. What possible reason could there be for not having better artwork? Ubuntu can build a distribution that is #1 on Distrowatch.com but can not include better artwork than the current default?

Come on, this is bug #1.
