Basically, the proposal is to clean out the wallpapers that we currently
present to the user, and just show:

Actually, I think that it would be advantageous to be a bit bolder.
What I would love to see is wallpapers that:

  * Have a consistent look and feel, both within the set, and across releases.
  * Are of consistently high-quality.
  * Promote the Fedora Workstation brand identity, with each image (or
the set of images) communicating key ideas we want to be associated
with.
  * Are a coherent and consistent part of the Workstation user experience.

Can you provide an example of how this might look in an actual set of wallpapers? would the defaults be a single set or multiple sets.

The Fedora Design team has created wallpapers for each release, and I don't think that should change. This wallpaper is key when it comes to marketing, as most reviewers use the background when reviewing, so having a new wallpaper for each release is a good thing here, and helps define the workstation flavor.

cheers,

As a part of this, the wallpapers would probably have to be be managed
as a single set (meaning - no pooling of images from different
sources/projects). Do you think it would be possible/desirable to
re-evaluate how Fedora wallpapers are managed, around a set of goals
such as these?
