Thanks for the proposal.

Where do you see the problem? We always give the default settings: Lumina is small and not using much memory when running, we have both groups "lumina-core" and "lumina-extra" to install separated modules and everyone is able to change that. Only because it is looking different somewhere else (don't know where this screenshot is coming from), does not mean our Lumina here can not look the same. But here comes the point: That depends on all people here.

Why not making a thread on how to modify the defaults and propose changes for the community? A default is used as the package-creators intended it to look alike. We don't want to make the same decisions as other systems or distributions. Basic package, some themes for sure, some very nice looking also. But the rest is upon the user. When something is not functional, please give us a sign so we solve it together. But it is not our responsibility to give every package a "branding". That would be unfair towards the user change it the way intended and learning how to make that. And when we add bunch of wallpapers it won't make a difference, furthermore we add packages without any more value or logic, just some graphics. With every new package going in that special direction it is like a part of domino stone falling down: Wallpaper, Icon-sets and -themes. And then we have also clear up the licensing for all. A user doing that for the desktop-background is untouched from all of that. But for example we have our rulesets regarding freedom and clear licenses. Including icons of unfree applications makes for sure extra-work at all (Steam, Spotify and more). We would have to remove all of that and use too much time we are not having as small team for this task. Therefore this answer!

And like the window-managers Lumina as complete environment can be completely modified. So? Feel invited. Heckyel provided a pure demonstration how all of that is looking after the installation. Go on and check it for options. It is your system awaiting and therefore your freedom of choice, included with your responsibility. It is for sure nice to make wishes, but there are causilities behind and we want clear reasonable standards and pure packages being ready to be modifed in their defaults. If you think Lumina is not fitting your needs? Okay. We have others. If you want to modify it? Please welcome and leave your configuration so others can review and build on top of.
This is free software and free culture!

Underlining that.
Thanks as with "much power there comes much responsibility" (sorry, a so good comic-quote to add) but also flexibility. And you can have a nice looking, clean interface. There are so many clean, little but powerful tools that you can build your own workflow and features. Hyperbola is not about convinience at all. But cool themes? Possible with sharing to the community. We won't ever go between that, but we have to follow what the defaults are. Others modify their packages until being not recognizable any longer. When you do that, you could even fork that at a point. The users have the power to decide and to emancipate. They will ever have it here.

Lol, nice teasing response, I guess I did deserve some of that,

that being said,  there is one other reason, some people's eyes might hurt looking at the standard wallpaper...

------------------------->     Not just me

I really hope you guys add more than just that weird default wallpaper to the installation at some point.

Aka, please add more wallpapers like the ones I showed you if possible to the default Lumina Desktop as choices, or at least have a link to them.

If not, meh... no worries.

Perhaps another proposal: Doing that here in the forums and create an own thread about that, so the community is in charge for that and can share tips and tricks. Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre is so colourful, we can build uncountable variations on top of that. Doing that together instead some packages and people learn: They are in charge!
