Desktop Backgrounds from Wikipedia and CC

Registered by towsonu2003

MORE MORE MORE! :)

More is usually better when it comes to artwork. Let's have more desktop backgrounds. 20, 30 of them. Let's import desktop backgrounds from Wikipedia and CreativeCommons featured pictures and amaze our users with the diversity in the open source world. They should make a "oh my.." remark and smile with joy and satifaction when they right-click on their desktop and choose "Change Desktop Background", facing many many beautiful desktop backgrounds.

Dapper has just 4 background pictures, which, as a number, is, uhm well, ...boring (no offense to the artwork team, these background pics are nice but not enough).

here are the links to these pics:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Featured_desktop_backgrounds #already resized#
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_pictures #resizing may be needed#
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Featured_pictures #resizing may be needed#

we could even make the community vote on which background images to import from there.
