Yes, yes it is. Living in both a virtual reality and real world, which world is this? :wink:

:grin: No, not really. I think the matrix effect looks pretty cool and "code-y".

:computer: Fun tip! The package cmatrix produces the matrix in the terminal.

That is very nice :smiley:

@lah7 Can I CC license this for inclusion in 16.04?

#5

@Wimpy Sure! If you need the source XCF, I can send that to you. :slight_smile:

#6

I like it! Do you have a version with black/dark green background only?

#7

Just the background @amachini? It’s simply a black background with 3 circular green gradients from the bottom left, middle and right corner.

Nice wallpaper.

TY. :wink:

This is awesome! How did you do it?

I used a ASCII converter, put in the Ubuntu MATE logo, cmatrix for the matrix effect and then some GIMP manipulation. :wink:

I found it @lah7, it was showing in the backgrounds list as a very dark pic and I thought it was a blank desktop pic!:
