+Long ago I made a few backgrounds to make my desktop look nicer. You
+may use this however you wish, but if you use them online I request
+that you link back to this page and copy the image to another location
+to save my bandwidth. Myspace users seem to enjoy directly linking to
+images; luckily HCoop's current colo provider doesn't charge obscene
+fees for bandwidth as our ancient one did.
+
+* Fractal Fire
+
+[[img/backgrounds/lame_fracfire.png][img/backgrounds/pre/lame_fracfire_pre.png]]
+
+A rather nice background that I use on my laptop nowadays.
+
+* Nifty Background
+
+[[img/backgrounds/nifty_bg.png][img/backgrounds/pre/nifty_bg_pre.png]]
+
+One of the first backgrounds I made; I put this together in a few
+minutes on an old OS X machine at school to show someone how to use
+[[http://gimp.org][GIMP]].
+
+* GPL Keycaps
+
+[[img/backgrounds/gnu_gpl_keycaps.png][img/backgrounds/pre/gnu_gpl_keycaps_pre.png]]
+
+Just bits of the [[http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html][GPL]] strewn about a blue background.
+
+* Face
+
+[[img/backgrounds/face.png][img/backgrounds/pre/face_pre.png]]
+
+I had a picture of a face lying about, and so I ran it through some
+filters and got this.
+
+* Gray Mosaic
+
+[[img/backgrounds/gray_mosaic.png][img/backgrounds/pre/gray_mosaic_pre.png]]
+
+A very large (1920x1200) gray tile mosaic. It looks particularly nice
+on a 24" screen.

+#title I Am Not Very Visual
+
+Once upon a time I liked to mess around the GIMP and make generative
+backgrounds and some themes for [[http://windowmaker.info/][Window Maker]]. The backgrounds, themes,
+and livejournal icons that I think are not incredibly terrible lie
+here before you.

+For some reason I still use [[http://windowmaker.org][Window Maker]] after all these years. Once
+upon a time I gazed in awe of the old graybeards who still used [[http://fvwm.org][FVWM]]
+and [[http://xwinman.org/vtwm.php][TWM]], and here I am many years later using a mostly abandoned
+window manager. At least it can look nice.
+
+* Nifty Background
+
+[[img/themes/niftybg.jpg][img/themes/niftybg_thumbnail.png]]
+
+This I think is my finest theme. I use this nowadays with my *Fractal
+Fire* [[Backgrounds][background]] on my laptop.

+[[files/themes/niftybg.tar.gz][Download]]
+
+* Pixel GNU
+
+[[img/themes/pixel_gnu.jpg][img/themes/pixel_gnu_thumbnail.png]]
+
+I still use this on my workstation today; it is a nice subdued theme.
+
+[[files/themes/pixel_gnu.tar.gz][Download]]
+
+* Pixel Linux
+
+These are the first themes I ever made that I don't think are
+atrocious looking. I had a thing for pixelate images when I was
+fifteen.

+** Original

+
+** Two
+
+[[img/themes/pixel_linux_2.jpg][img/themes/pixel_linux_2_thumbnail.png]]
+
+A variant on the original with slightly different images.

+
+* Simplistic Gray
+
+[[img/themes/simplistic_gray.jpg][img/themes/simplistic_gray_thumbnail.png]]
+
+A very simple gray theme that uses no pixmaps. This is what I used
+when I had a poor little 166MHz i586 with a very depressing 16M of
+RAM.
