The basic premise of a functional wallpaper is that should be fairly low
contrast, minimally saturated and overall should not steal the focus from the
actual items on the deskop.

Personally I like more neutral, simple wallpapers. Abstract macro
photography, GIMP’s noise filter are always a good start. However, I always
wanted to go overboard and do one of those overcrowded techoid wallpapers sites
like GFX Artist are full of.

The core of the wallpaper has been rendered in Blender, many elements created in Inkscape. Final composition done in GIMP. The lorem ipsum text has been laid out in
Inkscape though. GIMP’s text tool has to catch up in the flowed text
department.
