brent If I had known there was a DIY I would never downloaded anything. Later I have to see if Budgie has something like this.

As I've written above GNOME unfortunately removed that feature, and Budgie is affected by that as well.

      Staudey thank you

      edit: maybe Mr. Flatpak has something like that🙂

          Why don't you just load up your Ventoy with a copy of Solus Plasma, and give it an honest evaluation? Yeah, I know 10,000 settings. But you can safely ignore the 9,900 that have sane defaults, and many of the rest are very useful options that don't occur in other DEs. Stuff like fractional scaling, for instance, so you can get the best fit for your screen size and resolution.

          You might find that it's nowhere near as intimidating as you thought. It wouldn't surprise me to find out that most Plasma users are ex-Budgie users, with me among them.

              WetGeek Hey, I've done stranger things🙂. I dont hate it, I will admit to the world in a global forum right here though that I was intimidated by it. I think trying it Live is a great idea.

                  You guys have lost me. Can't you just download something off the internet, make the changes you want in a Photoshop type application and save it to your Pictures folder?

                  BTW, I hate anything but light themes, but Nord is pretty cool. I ran across this webpage that allows you to convert your favorite wallpaper to the Nord style:

                    I'm quite a fan of a teal background too - Win95 style!

                    riffer Nice. I remember a similar one but with Solarized scheme.

                      This thread has made me realize something. It has occurred to me that it almost doesn't matter what wallpaper I install. Sure, when I create or select one, I can look at it and admire it, but, truth be told, in actual daily use I seldom ever see the background.

                      For many years, I've been a fan of multiple workspaces -- even back in the day when I was using Windows, the free utility VirtuaWin was my friend. More than one workspace makes for a very efficient workflow. With a number of workspaces available I can use nearly every application in its most useful full-screen mode.

                      Full-screen email, full-screen browser, full-screen games, full-screen VMs, full-screen terminal, and so on. Since each has its own workspace, no app ever competes with any other app for screen space.

                      So, I seldom ever see the background wallpaper,. Kinda makes me sad.

                        Plasma also lets you have movie/gif wallpaper that actually plays. Some are pretty cool if they're done right.

                        brent I think trying it Live is a great idea.

                        When do you plan to do that? I want to make sure I don't miss it!
