The bottom right is great. Modern, warm, enough contrast, ... . Imho going with plain blue or green backgrounds are becoming a cliche in KDE and tbh a little bit old-fashioned.

Agreed. That or top left for me.

Top left (especially), or bottom left I think.. Top left is elegant, has a variety of hues and not just plain blue, modern.. I think it would suit a wide range of consumers ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago

+1 for top left!

Bottom right one is the one for me, epic!

Bottom right is the best because the light colors and non-busy art won't hide desktop icons.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

Yep and I prefer warm colors and cute looking art to corporate ass abstract backgrounds (no disrespect to kde team)

[–] [email protected] 28 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I like top left the best, but honestly almost all wallpapers are too bright for me. I want something really dark. I dislike feeling blinded at night when I close all my software

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

For the last wallpaper (the mountain one) there was a light and a dark version. I hope they do something similar here (I'd like it to integrate with Night Colour).

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

People had to submit light, dark , horizontal and vertical versions.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 11 months ago

Bottom right all the way

[–] [email protected] 19 points 11 months ago

Top left looks best as a default wallpaper in my opinion. Nice mix of colours, not too bright or too dark, and generally seems appealing while not being too distracting.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago

Bottom right.

Dear diary, today I contributed to the ongoing development of FOSS software.

Top left or bottom right

[–] [email protected] 13 points 11 months ago

Bottom right.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 11 months ago

Bottom right FTW. Love the colors and sense of serenity

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago

Fiery tree bottom right!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago

Hands down the tree.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago

Top left, then bottom right ✌️

My first choice is bottom right and second choice is middle right.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago

Bottom right

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

Bottom right.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

Bottom right looks awesome, but mid right has potential too. The only thing holding it back imo is the overall grayness of the foreground being a bit too much.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

Bottom right

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

@[email protected] @[email protected] right bottom (the tree) is the best, the one above it is the second place

The minecraft biome gave me trypophobia

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

Sorry but I don't like them much. They seem kinda similar to past ones.

If I had to choose I would say top left.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

Bottom right or the one above it. I'm a sucker for these cartoony looking wallpapers

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

I like bottom right best. It might be a bit to bright though.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

Bottom right. Nice and colorful

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Oooh, I love both middle right and bottom right, but I think I prefer middle right.

Bottom right

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

I like bottom right the most, but it does't really feel like a default wallpaper as much as top left. Middle right feels like part of a tiling WM with custom colors more than a default for a DE.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

Bottom right

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

They all look great but we need a dark and light version of the winner.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Where download?

I really like the middle right, but sadly fat fucking chance of it ever being chosen

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

@[email protected] @[email protected] bottom right - it's bright and gorgeous and unique without being too busy.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

I like the bottom-right the most, but I feel like top-right and bottom-left are what I would most associate with being a default desktop wallpaper.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

Top left or bottom right for me

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

I like: top row both pictures

Thanks for Voting here!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

Hmm~ I would say that the bottom right one caught my eye, but I would go with the top left one as the default wallpaper. It looks sophisticated and clean. It depends on the first impression you want to give.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

@[email protected] @[email protected] I think it's top left, but I'd love bottom right

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

Bottom right
