I think that one is so nice, im using it on my system.

Thats some nice work! Would you feel like making something using the linuxmint logo? If you decide to do anything here (http://www.box.net/shared/g3815e1a1a) is the logo in svg form. BTW +rep forever from me if you do make something!

[Commando]

Great work.

[XcOM]

Here you go calumc:

as requested two wallpapers for you, linux mint logos in the same style as my ubuntu, a nice green as that seems to be the style of mint.

I've made two different versions for you, both in 1024x768

If you want anything changing or want them in a different style, just ask.

A nice blue, suites the green of Mint, last one for this week:

Swirl--I think I remember running across a GIMP tut for something very similar to that.

Very good work bud, you're making me want to fire up either PS or GIMP and do some work now.

[XcOM]

i use a bit of both, gimp is easier and simpler, but PS has more advanced tools

[si-skyline]

goodness fran I thought you would need be torn away from GIMP. good work tho. liking the abstract and circle one :)
