Tiled wallpapers

rasat · 18 May 2022 18:50

I have created a few tiled wallpapers (960x540) to work on different screen resolutions, such as 3840x2160 and 1024x600. An addition to the Fvwm defaults.

Found a filter in Gimp that creates seamless images, click link

If you want to add your wallpapers to the default configuration, make a pull request on github.

About github I am still a newbie. How do you do a pull request? Do I do it from my newly created repo “Tiled-wallpapers” or from the “fvwm3” repo which I never understood how it landed in my github. Or from where?

Good thing this is documented.

Once you get forking, commits, and pull requests figured out, you can update the fvwm wiki in a similar manner using the fvwmorg.github.io repository.

Please don’t ask me to read git-related manuals because they are written for people who already know how things work. Not for newbies who are not familiar with the git terminologies (fork, pull, push, merge, etc.) I am a fast learner when steps are shown.

Can I use the fvwm3 repo in my github.? I have updated it with “Fetch Upstream”.
My suggested tiled wallpapers I am adding in this folder.
After updates/uploads, I will click “Pull requests” ???

4 new tiled wallpapers are suggested for the default configuration. Also a new default wallpaper. “Floral” is replaced with “Desktop”.

Next, I will take a look at the Fvwm wiki.

Five new tiled wallpapers are uploaded, check here.

I renewed the new wallpapers to have a proper/solid look when loaded from the upper-left screen corner. It makes a difference on the left side. This is tiled Work Desk in action.

Nice collection. The Gimp Tile Seamless filter is interesting.
On GitHub another tile collection.

I renewed again the four tiled images for Fvwm Kise: Web Desk, Email Desk, Work Desk, and Misc. Desk. Now, they are ready, check here.

Mjaakko · 3 November 2023 13:24

They are beautiful. How did you make, not easy for seamless images.

It is easy and fast to develop Fvwm scripts but a wallpaper can take a looong time. Same as making a painting… never satisfied, constantly changing.

The Tiled Web Desk image is interesting. I added yoga to it and one picture of mine. In Helsinki, I conduct weekly Senior Yoga in three places, a total of 100 people. Big demand among elderly people.
